      While the replication system is in RECOVERING, we cannot read collection data (error code NotMasterOrSecondary). However, provided we have allowed secondary reads, we CAN do a listDatabases or listCollections or listIndexes. This seems bad, since the results of these reads may represent database states which are inconsistent or at a point in time prior to a previously reported lastDurable time of the node.
