It is not meaningful to know the current status of the partition. If it has
*ever* been writable, something may have filled it at that time.

Note that I believe users need to take explicit action with developer tools
(ubuntu-device-flash or sudo on a handset that has had changes made from
defaults - either install of terminal, or use of developer mode) to ever
mark the partition writeable.

I don't know. I observe that in both cases the maths df presents doesn't
actually add up. (1.6+4.6 != 2 and 1.6 + 0.3 != 2).

I think so.
