This is not, AFAICS, explained in the documentation. I found it via bug reports and reading the source for the non-handler operation. WIBNI the requirement was documented, so that future file handler implementors can see more easily what needs to be done? (I suspect that there are other places where the file modes need to be set; I'll try to find them later. But if you like to give me a hint, that's also appreciated :-) -- This line is not blank.
