Martin Durant commented on ARROW-453:
-------------------------------------

Obviously, I choose to do this one particular way, so you cannot count me as 
unbiased. To the particular question, I think that a URL like 
"s3://bucket/path/file" is very convenient at pinpointing a particular object 
without further qualification.

However, fsspec creates pyarrow-compatible instances for any of the 
implementations it references (including s3fs and gcsfs), so who do you need to 
do anything? You are talking about C-land? I'm not sure I am behind repeating 
all the work and coming up with new file-system standards yet again. Of course, 
I am a python-first kind of person.
