--- Comment #30 from Sven Brauch <mail at svenbrauch.de> ---
Regarding other applications: most applications (e.g. kate) are not affected by
this issue, since they just load the whole file into memory, and save it from
their in-memory buffer if requested. Gwenview also seems to do this, even
though it closes the file when deleted, it can still save an e.g. rotated
image, apparently from memory (it has no open file handle).

Okular is quite special here with its "stream from disk" behaviour, from a
quick look around I didn't find another commonly used application doing this.
