   > Fundamentally I don't think we should be trying to implement a durable 
tranaction [sic] layer over the LocalFileSystem that handles all failure 
scenarios by sprinkling fsync around the codebase.
   
   I tend to think the value of the local filesystem support is compatibility, 
not performance. If you want performance, don't enable the fsync option. 
Supporting the atomicity guarantees of the other object stores IS quite 
valuable from the application developer's point of view (even if it isn't the 
most performant). The value: being able to abstract the application to the 
object store interface.

   Feel free to close this. Often what is valuable is difficult, but if 
contributors aren't fixing bugs and maintainers are burdened, I understand.
