Description
Feature Request
Is your feature request related to a problem? Please describe.
I'm using use_tmp_file or staging_dir to prevent files being shipped out by our file distribution system prematurely. Currently, trollflow2 stores all files to temporary files, then renames/moves them when they are all finished. It would be desirable to move/rename each file as soon as it's finished, so that products are delivered to users sooner.
Describe the solution you'd like
I would like that (optionally?) files are renamed to their final name as soon as they're finished.
Describe any changes to existing user workflow
None if the behaviour is optional. But I think I'm the only user anyway.
Additional context
Make the production so fast that it doesn't matter ;-)

Research direction
The issue names no source files, tests, or entry points; start by tracing how use_tmp_file and staging_dir handle completed files in trollflow2. Define an optional behavior that moves each file when it is finished, while preserving the current behavior when disabled, and verify that users receive completed products before the full production ends.
