I do have a workaround thanks to Gregory Ewing https://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-list/2017-May/721649.html which suffices for my particular use-case (generating a link to a file with a unique filename). As my use-case is predominantly for *nix environments, the lack of Windows' os.rename() atomicity is merely a would-be-nice-for-other-people-if-it-was-available. But I'll update my documentation to reflect the edge-case. Thanks, Eryk.
