Yes, but why would you want to use "hard_remove" anyway?  If you don't
actually remove the file, it's very tricky to handle correctly, since
another file may be created with the same name, etc...

You can, since release() is already called with the right file handle.

I think the current philosophy is that, if you use "hard_remove" and
remove open files, then expect things to be broken.
