Brett Cannon added the comment:

Antoine does make a good point: adding st_nlink could lead to some 
hard-to-discover bugs because something will work the first time when the file 
is added but then subsequently fail if you are modifying the new file in-place.

I'm going to go with Antoine's thinking and close this bug as "won't fix". 
Thanks for at least taking a stab at the code, Erik.

----------
resolution:  -> wont fix
