I agree with @macdonst that setting the "AndroidPersistentFileLocation"
preference to "Compatibility" should be enough if the developer wants the old
behaviour, but to the question "Do we really need to write some code to show
devs how to copy files from one location to another using the FileSystem API?"
Well, not really write code to show HOW to copy the files, there is
documentation about copying files, but from WHERE? how do I get the old files
location?
If you change the preference to internal,
"window.requestFileSystem(PERSISTENT, 0, win, fail);" will give you this
location "/data/data/{android package}/files/files/", but where are the old
files? How do you get them now if PERSISTENT will give you the new location?
It's not obvious to me
