in an offline chat with @maliberty, he suggests that even with an unknown type we should default to input.

I am not in favor of this change as I think this is fixing a symptom rather than the root cause. The four legal values of dbIoType are handled in the current code. Somehow you are getting here with an invalid type. That is a critical problem and should be treated as such. How such an invalid value got into odb should be figured out and resolved at the source.
