"File already in use"

"File is already in use" error when foobar2000 try to open file already opened by another software for write. Because of foobar2000 opens file with share mode "FILE_SHARE_READ", which conficts with another software (that writes to file but does not block read access). E.g. sometimes i need to listen flac when download not finished. Feature request: open file for read-only(as for now) but with share mode "FILE_SHARE_READ+FILE_SHARE_WRITE" to able open files in most cases.

Sorry for my English, i prefer Russian.
