Do we need to create actual files, or is it a convenience thing for blob entry types (because they already read their contents from files)?
We need the files for mkimage.
But the mkimage etype creates its own files to pass to mkimage anyway, using entry.GetData() in collect_contents_to_file() without reaching into subentries' files.
More specifically, what I'm thinking of is removing check_fake_fname() entirely, instead of managing/removing the files it creates. At a cursory glance, only blob and blob-ext-list seem to use that directly.
