Kihwal Lee commented on HADOOP-13739:
-------------------------------------

Reads don't leave any file-level state on namenode. If reads were stateful, 
hdfs wouldn't scale. A lease obtained during create or append is the closest 
thing to file locking. 

> Add the ability to check - is a file opened for writing
