Hmm. Looks like it's crashing because DatabasePath is not set yet.
We could probably kluge around that by having this function return
without doing anything if DatabasePath is null, but I wonder if this
doesn't indicate that things are being done in the wrong order.
If DatabasePath isn't set, then there's a whole lot of other
infrastructure that's not good either:
