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.
