   > And one more, I think let file stream sink to ignore metadata directory on 
reading existing metadata but write to the metadata directory is odd and 
error-prone. The metadata is no longer valid when Spark starts to write a new 
metadata on the same directory, and the option must be set to true for such 
directory to read properly despite Spark writes the metadata. There's no 
indication and end users have to memorize it.
   
   I don't know if it is a typo, but this doesn't let file stream sink but 
actually lets file stream source (and batch read path) to ignore metadata 
directory when reading the output of file stream sink. It doesn't change how 
file stream sink reads or writes to the metadata directory. Is it possible we 
are talking two different things?
