If your storage is full then you have other problems.  Adding nack/ack 
capability would increate the complexity of the driver/core about 10 fold, so 
this is not something we're willing to consider right now.  If this is an 
issue, then the user should be notified well in advance to rectify the 
situation or face possible data loss.
