Reason: I've did more thinking and I don't see the possibility to safely delete the lock files. There's always a race condition between checking for other processes waiting for it and deleting a lock file.

In that time window a process can open the lock file and wait for acquiring the lock. Then lock file gets deleted and waiting process may hang. This is certainly unacceptable.
