Review Comment:
   Hmm. Well, the purpose of `MetaProperties` is that we know what types we 
want in the meta.properties file and we can check for those specifically.
   
   If we just want a generic key/value file where we don't know ahead of time 
what is in it, `java.util .Properties` does that just fine. It has a bit of 
old-school JDK 1.0 messiness, but on the other hand it's instantly familiar to 
Java programmers, and that has some value. So I doubt replacing or wrapping 
would repay the time investment needed, to be honest. 
   
   I don't see the connection with fsync since we sometimes want to fsync 
properties files, but other times not. So it's ultimately up to the programmer 
to do the right thing, as always.
