They're not API gotchas in most cases.
And writing comprehensive tests for this behaviour is very difficult regardless of which language you are using.
I am all for rust rewrites of things. But in this case, these are mistakes which were encouraged by the lazy design of `std::fs` and the developers' lack of relevant experience.
And to clarify, I don't blame the developers for lacking the relevant experience. Working on such a project is precisely the right place to learn stuff like this.
I think it's an absurdly dumb move by Canonical to take this project and beta-test it on normal users' machines though…
