   @turbaszek does it really make sense for airflow to have _ToLocal operators?
   
   Seems like an odd use case?   Is the idea to use it with a mounted volume or something?
   
   Commonly, airflow workers are ephemeral and nothing local is persisted....  and what's local on one task might not present on another...
   
   Maybe it's better to just have a hook method that downloads to local, and user who need this kind of thing can easily wrap it into and operator themselves.  That would be my suggestion i guess.
