I noticed that recently, too. I have a patch series about 90% complete
that abstracts the tempfile handling (the ultimate goal of which is to
optionally clean up tmp_* files in the objects/ directory). It refactors
the lockfile cleanup, and it would not be too hard to have a committed
or rolled-back lockfile actually remove itself from the "to clean at
exit" list.
Which would make it perfectly safe to have a lockfile as an automatic
variable as long as you commit or rollback before leaving the function.
