I agree, but my comment was that it would be nice if better fsync support (if added) could be done in such a way that it helped not only file objects, but also *file-like* objects (such as the wrappers in the tempfile module) without making the file-like API any fatter. If that's not possible or practical so be it, but it is still something to keep in mind when considering options.
