Reaching back into my memory of windows development past here ... but 
won't reading/writing to such a windows file handle after a 
rename/delete return an error?

This would be significantly different than the unix behavior of being 
able to continue to read/write to a file descriptor even if the 
directory entry is moved or deleted.
