Those comments scare me. Why do you need to be extra cautious?
How can the file type possibly change between may_open and anywhere?
The type of a file is immutable after it's creation.
If the comment said check just in case something went wrong with
code maintenance I could understand but that isn't what the comment
says.
Also the fallthrough change below really should be broken out into
it's own change.

^^^^^^^^^^^
That is an unrelated change and should be sent separately.
