Then I guess the Unix way of solving this would be to add yet another binary (there's already cat and tee) which would basically just open a file and write standard input to it. It could be called "open" :) and basically be slimmed down (cripled some would say?) version of tee (without the tee's feature of writing standard input to standard output).
