Hi Petr,

I was involved in discussions a few months ago where Mapbox Vector Tiles 
read/write support would have been part of a larger project, but I'm not sure 
if/when this will come true.

I see you mention MVT in MBTiles. Is it a recognized practice ? I don't see  
mention of that neither in the MVT spec ( https://github.com/mapbox/vector-
tile-spec/tree/master/2.0 ) nor the MBTiles one ( 
https://github.com/mapbox/mbtiles-spec/blob/master/1.2/spec.md ), although I 
guess it is just a matter of storing a MVT blob in the tile_data column.
