I seriously doubt if Blizzard has any concerns about the effect their program has on an ext3 filesystem
There are several blue posts on the forums now, this problem is a bug, not intended, and they are working on the fix already.
Indeed rumors are that Blizzard intended this to prevent multiboxing WoW
Those rumors would be wrong. Blizzard doesn't like botting, but they don't care about multiboxing. They have said this several times in the past, as long as you are using legal copies of the game and are at the keyboard playing them you can run as many WoW clients at once as you want to. If you are playing illegal accounts or servers, other people's accounts, or botting the accounts instead of playing them, then they get upset about it. :)
