 * An interface providing basic operations on a filesystem, such as reading and writing files,

 * The interface is sealed until API stabilization, but in the future it will allow
 * creating custom filesystems that could be used as mocks for testing or provide
 * access to some network resources and allow working with them as with regular files, for example.
 *
