FWIW I have been running on this for few days now without any noticeable regressions. We get a solved FIXME in return but like I said I am a happy to remove the redundant abstraction if this is too risky.

I would prefer just to remove the abstraction, together with a comment that Linux fifos behave exactly like pipes, unlike the behavior of most unices.
