So, the risk that concerns you is concurrent updating of a user cron
file by the user who owns it? As I recall, editfiles operations are
performed on a copy of the target file. If that's right, a user's
updates to a cron file might be lost due to concurrent update, but I
don't see the potential for corrupting the file.
Perhaps I'm missing something important ....
Cheers,
