I know that POSIX makes no guarantee regarding durable writes, but IMHO that's definitely wrong, in the sense that when one calls fsync, he expects the data to be committed to disk and be durable.
Fixing this deficiency through Python's exposed fsync might thus be a good idea (for example, the Window version probably doesn't call fsync, so it's already not a direct mapping).
