I don't understand how this resolves the concern about clobbering. If
each Emacs session just writes its list of projects to the file,
without refreshing the list due to additions done by another session,
they will still clobber each other's lists, no? This could be avoided
if the writer would read the file before rewriting it.
Can you tell why the list of projects is saved on a file that is
global among all sessions of the same user? Would it make sense to
make the file specific to an Emacs process?
