It happened with some "echo $whatever | apparmor_parser -p /dev/stdin"
and checking my bash history showed I accidently deleted the pipe when I
hit the so-called bug. In other words: it works as it should (and I get
the correct error message for duplicate hat names) - sorry for the false
alarm!

Yes, that sounds like a good method, even if it means a bit more work.
(Hint: we already do something similar when writing config files ;-)

For the clean up option - don't read the old profile while writing the new
one ;-)

Yes.
