> The {{FileSystem}} class is overloaded and has methods that are not well supported. I suggest to do the following cleanups:
>   - Pull the safety net into a separate class
>   - Use the {{WriteMode}} to indicate overwriting behavior. Right now, the {{FileSystem}} class defines that enum and never uses it. It feels weird.
>   - Remove the {{create(path, overwrite, blocksize, reolication, ...)}} method, which is not really supported across file system implementations. For HDFS, behavior should be set via the configuration anyways.
> All changes have to be made in a non-API-breaking fashion.
