Comment:
Thanks for your comments, I think this is going to be a great ticket.
I agree with you on all points except when I'm "Using a storage system on
its own." In this case I do not just want my inherited remote filesystem
to have general filesystem functionality, I want all my filesystems to
have those functions--mostly because I want to have the choice of
filesystem to be determined by a settings file (for different servers, or
testing vs production deployments). Now in the case where this ticket is
a "file storage" ticket, we might not need things like "list_dir", but as
a "file system" I would think we absolutely do--otherwise the abstraction
layer falls short in cases outside of the file fields.
I could subclass the filesystem and create a more general filesystem
before subclassing further into remote and local varieties, but that seems
to be a little counter-productive. Just my 2 cents--this is great work
and I'll be happy for it.
