Here's my 0.02$:

- As an experienced programmer, I'm perfectly familiar with the file 
handles concept, and why it is done.

- I recall though that when I first encountered this concept, I found it 
counter-intuitive as well; I'd have expected the file to be identified 
by its name always.

- The concept may be easier to understand if the user is made aware that 
he can have one and the very same file open multiple times for reading.
