Weston Pace commented on ARROW-14904:
-------------------------------------

Opening an append stream is on the path to be deprecated.  It isn't supported 
on all filesystems (e.g. S3) or all formats (e.g. parquet).  Overwrite behavior 
should exist today.

That being said I can see the potential advantages when it comes to CSV.  CC

> This would be a match for the {{readr::write_csv()}} {{append}} argument: 
> boolean. If {{FALSE}} will overwrite existing file. If {{TRUE}} will append 
> to existing file. In both cases, if the file doesn't exist, a new file is 
> created.
