That's exactly what I'm using it for. =) I think anyone else who has
tests that write files is going to need something like this too, which
is what made me think it'd be appropriate for contrib.

Sure; the idea is that "if" implies an "else", but "when" contains an
implicit "do" and is thus more suitable for impure functions?

Yeah, I had originally put this in the clojure.contrib.java-utils
namespace, which defines file. Not sure if that's the best place for it,
but I don't see anything else that would be a better fit.
