Correct, the flags are just indications to the caller.  The caller might
raise an exception if a thread-unsafe store is paired with a multithreaded
server.    There's no database locking code, although Postgres uses a
transaction for the immediate operation.

I haven't seen locking in any of the modules I've used, nor any particular
errors caused by this.  Is it defined what behavior the server should have
if the user has the same site opened in two tabs and clicks back and
forth?
