> The current FileSystem open() method throws a generic IOException in its API specification.
> Some FileSystem implementations (DFS, RawLocalFileSystem ...) throws more specific FileNotFoundException if the path does not exist.  Some throws IOException only (FTPFileSystem, HftpFileSystem ...). 
> If we have a new FileSystem implementation, what should we follow exactly for open()?
> What should the application expect in this case.
