That seems more desireable to me anyway. As it stands, a program that just
calls fopen and then fileno and does not io, or just uses fopen+fclose to
test existence (I have seen such things) will map in the contents of the
file when that's never required at all.

If somebody sends a patch I've no problems with this either.
