atomically. Therefore, when we read a file in order to upload it, we
may read an inconsistent version if it was also being written locally.

A well-behaved application can avoid this problem for its writes:
enough to prevent inconsistency in any particular case. Also, the
stability delay would potentially affect performance significantly
because (unlike the pending delay) it is not overlapped when there

+(Tahoe-LAFS ticket `#1459`_).
We have not yet decided whether to implement the stability delay, and
it is not planned to be implemented for the OTF objective 4 milestone.
