When office crashes, it tries to remove the lock file. The probability of the
scenario when the crash handling is not able to remove the lock file is very
small, although of course it is possible in case the crash handling itself
crashes or can not be activated.
The killing of the process is a different story, we have no handler for this
case, so the lock file is not removed. The same problem with the lock file
happens when the network connection is suddenly broken and the document is
closed during the outage.
>From my point of view even if there is no document with the specified name, we
can not just remove the lock file from another user in reliable manner. The
problem is that it is possible that another user creates the file exactly at the
same point of time. Timestamp based solution looks for me to unreliable in
network environment.
So currently I see only a UI improvement possibility for this case.
