 example code will illustrate the problem best


 {{{
 function my-option($v) {
   if (is_single() {
     return '1';
   }

   return $v;
 }

 add_filter('option_my_option','my_option');

 }}}

 now somewhere in a single.php of a theme


 {{{
 update_option('my_option','1');

 }}}

 will not write to the DB since the code will detect that the value wasn't
 changed.

 I guess this is an extreme rare case in practice, but it seems like either
 get_option should get a 'raw' parameter and ignore filters, or
 update_option should get the raw value in another way.
