Since Room doesn't support MutableLiveData and has support for LiveData only, your approach of creating a wrapper is the best approach I can think of. It will be complicated for Google to support MutableLiveDatasince the setValue and postValue methods are public. Where as for LiveData they are protected which gives more control.
