   I can't see an obvious way to add support for this without introducing some 
sort of locking setup. In practice I think this is unlikely to be added as:
   
   * Locking APIs have many platform-specific quirks
   * Most systems only support advisory locking
   * Locking would add non-trivial overheads even to read operations
   * Very complex to test and validate
   
   One potential way around this I have considered is using something like LMDB 
as a meta database, this might provide better mechanisms for this, and similar 
functionality. However, at that point you've already lost the native filesystem 
interoperability, and you might as well just run minio or similar...
