It would be pretty tricky, especially in the presence of foreign code,
it is completely unclear how to restore open I/O streams in general.
I think there are better things to do with the resources it would take
to implement and maintain this (and reply to all the corner cases that
will require explanation why this cases can be handled, but that case
cannot) ...
