After Hrvoje's message, let me rephrase my suggestion. Let's instead allow:
open(..., sync_on="close")
open(..., sync_on="flush")
with a default of None meaning no implicit syncs.
That looks good, though I'd prefer using named constants rather than
strings.
I would agree, but where do you put them? Since open is a built-in,
where would you suggest placing such constants (assuming we don't want
to pollute the built-in namespace)?
I actually prefer strings. Just like 'w' or 'r' in open().
Or why not add "f" "c" as modes?
open('file.txt', 'wf')
open for writing, sync on flush
