While it's an alternative, I feel like going down that path is hasty and
for my use case I will probably just patch our local fork of OpenvSwitch.

Why so hostile towards this change? Is there a better forum I can explain
why I believe this problem should be reconsidered?

Is there really anyone that can justify the way socket paths are created
should contain the PID? You clearly saw the problem with it in the Windows
code base, but yet pushed on to keep it in the Linux one. I simply do not
see why you're not taking this patch as a way to encourage people to
migrate towards a saner default, and somewhere down the line maybe even
switch the default behavior.
