Review Comment:
   @Fokko 
   >How would that work? I think a race condition cannot be avoided, where it 
would pass 99.99% of the time, but it can be that they overwrite each other 
because they don't know that multiple processes are writing to the table.
   
   For filesystems that support atomic operations, rename operations do not 
overwrite each other. On the other hand, this operation is not supported in 
object storage. Due to the atomic nature of the operation, each client will 
know if its operation succeeded or not when it renames.
