This function isn't used anywhere in this series, I would prefer to
merge it along with a user.

Is printing to an opened filedescriptor the most useful semantics of
this function? This only seems to make sense when other things should be
written to the file as well, otherwise I would assume to pass a path to
this function which then handles open/close also.
