Comment (by vbraun):
Well if your goal is to eventually have both proper locking and atomic
writing separately then thats fine. But the name should still convey why
we are doing that, not how.
Obviously many Sage developers are not familiar with which file system
operations are atomic, so they will rightfully be confused when they see
code that writes a cache with `write_via_temp`. Clearly there is an
optimization where you take out that extra step ;-)
How about `atomic_write`?
