>          Issue Type: Bug

> I realize that you guys probably have a good reason for S3AFileSystem to 
> cleanup "fake" folders when a file is written to S3.  That said, that fact 
> that it silently does this feels like a separation of concerns issue.  It 
> also leads to weird behavior issues where calls to 
> AmazonS3Client.getObjectMetadata for folders work before calling 
> `S3AFileSystem.create` but not after.  Also, there seems to be no mention in 
> the javadoc that the `deleteUnnecessaryFakeDirectories` method is 
> automatically invoked. Lastly, it seems like the goal of FileSystem should be 
> to ensure that code built on top of it is portable to different 
> implementations.  This behavior is an example of a case where this can break 
> down.
