What is the problem?

currently trying to datalad ls someone else's repository would start crashing with all the errors to be unable to lock that repository, while git annex info is ran.
In recent http://git-annex.branchable.com/bugs/impossible_to_perform___34__read-only__34___git_annex_info_without_write_permissions/#comment-04827552f7895ca8557e416e48e173c1 @joeyh implemented a config option to avoid "git-annex merge" being ran in the background, which would provide remedy here. The only question either we should make it a default mode of operation for annex info in case of ls, optional, or automagic (enable if permissions issues reported in the initial attempted git annex info run)
