That wasn't the stated premise -- do I "fully control access to the
underlying database"? Yes. I am the only one accessing the DB w/
write privileges, so I'm fully empowered to shoot myself in the foot
if I choose :-)

And yes, sometimes in dev mode I'll dump the DB, test drive an idea
in raw SQL, restore, rewrite that idea as a migration or rake task and
test, restore, etc.

But that's not the same as having a non-Rails app without validation
constraints accessing the same DB (which I believe was Andrew's
point - apologies if I'm misinterpreting).
