I'm still reaching here...
I was thinking of /proc. Opening your own /proc/$$/* would certainly be considered OK. But, doing it for some other process not in your pid namespace would not be OK and would not be checkpointable.
I know we're not quite in real-life territory here, yet, but I'm still thinking.
