Should this have a test to check this behaviour? Perhaps in longer future python reading and writing could be rewritten to use C++ (type-erased) readers/writers with less wrappers? |

Yes, it should. |

There was a problem hiding this comment.
this needs to be excluded from the sanitizer runs as they do not usually work with anything that invokes the python interpreter.
If no collections are passed then let the C++ decide instead of passing all collections (which is what the C++ writers do). In practice, this only allows to write empty frames from python, currently not possible as collections will evaluate to false and all the collections from `frame.getAvailableCollections` will be passed.
