----------------------------------------------
> As to your FutureWithCallback, where does this come from? Have you built any
> event-driven apps with it? At first blush, it is lacking in vocabulary at
> least when put against Deferred or CompletableFuture. Thanks.
The idea of Callback and FutureWithCallback is similar to Java Event Model
which is a well-known model that many and many apps are built with it. I did
not intent to use it for replacing Deferred or CompletableFuture. As mentioned
previously, I propose using CompletableFuture for trunk. Unfortunately,
CompletableFuture is not available in branch-2 so that we need something like
FutureWithCallback to support callbacks.
> Add new FileSystem API to support asynchronous method calls

> Add a new API, namely FutureFileSystem (or AsynchronousFileSystem, if it is a
> better name). All the APIs in FutureFileSystem are the same as FileSystem
> except that the return type is wrapped by Future, e.g.
> {code}
> //FileSystem
> public boolean rename(Path src, Path dst) throws IOException;
> //FutureFileSystem
> public Future<Boolean> rename(Path src, Path dst) throws IOException;
> {code}
> Note that FutureFileSystem does not extend FileSystem.
