I did not misunderstand.  The semantics are equivalent to the POSIX
case: you end up with a handle to an open file that is exclusive to that
process (it cannot be opened by any other process, even root) and that
is automatically reclaimed by the filesystem when all open handles are
closed, without any explicit action by the user.  It's not "unlinking an
open file", no, but it's the same result.
