Well I would still say the lock handling around .pulse-cookie could be more
efficient anyway - e.g. in the vast majority of cases we just need to read it
and then we're done. No need to lock in such situations really. Only when we
need to overwrite it should we attempt to do any locking IMO.

So I think the decided approach outlined on the ML thread still stands.
