you are right !
the "sticky bit" set to /tmp/ prevents the root user from altering the file
belonging to the simple user !
$ ls -ld /tmp/
drwxrwxrwt 13 root root 320 Dec 17 13:22 /tmp/
$ ls -l /tmp/test
-rw-r--r-- 1 user 0 Dec 17 13:24 /tmp/test
$ echo test | sudo tee -a /tmp/test
tee: /tmp/tes

hi,
here, I have this simple script that tests if the /tmp/test file can be
opened in write mode :
$ cat /tmp/append
#!/usr/bin/python
with open('/tmp/test', 'a'): pass
the file does not exist yet :
$ chmod +x /tmp/append
$ ls -l /tmp/test
ls: cannot access '/tmp/test': No such file or director
