I meant the sgen equivalent of the f-reachable queue. Callback will be
called around the same time, I agree, but the object itself (with the
one it points) can stay in memory longer.

As I said, I would rather not delete file directly on the callback's
thread, but queue its deletion. Also the mentioned approach can be
useful for other kinds of resources.
