It seems like a very common and basic operation. If it doesn't exist
IMO it should be created.
The only mechanism for synchronising different filesystem operations is
fsync. You should use that.
If it is too slow, use data journalling, and place your journal on a
small low-latency device (NVRAM??)
This isn't about some DB-like app, it's about normal file writes, like
archive extractions, compiling, editors, etc.
From the flow of the discussion I guess you should give R4 a try.
