See Greg Hudson's post.

It's not a kludge. Having a pre/post condition for a function is not unheard of.

It's actually a valid idiom - design by contract.

Should you choose to go down that path, it's entirely feasible that we could
leverage it into additional things that would need to take place.

Or possibly externalize it someday into a python hook or what not.

And you avoid syncrhonization issues between the ra_file protocol and yours.

There are a myriad of issues avoided. Maybe it's worth reconsidering?
