Comment (by jua):
After further discussion with vivek-roy:
* The permission check works as expected, no bug there.
* However, as vivek-roy pointed out, the code would also have to check the
current user and all its groups to determine if there really is write
permission. That would add unnecessary complexity, so creating the
temporary file looks like the simplest solution after all.
