   > The FileIO is designed to avoid certain operations (move/list/etc), and it 
only does a few things (read, create, and delete). If wrap this into an 
abstraction, that would work just as well.
   
   I plan to do the following PoC as the next step:
   - Define `FileIO` related abstraction in the `iceberg-core` library.
   - Add a `iceberg-arrow` library to provide concrete implementation of 
`FileIO` backed by `arrow::FileSystem`. This requires to add Arrow as a 
third-party library. I can use a CMake option `ICEBERG_USE_ARROW` to make it 
optional.
   
   > Another possibility perhaps would be an IO-less abstraction (the Iceberg 
library tells you what it is waiting for, and you give it what it asks for). 
Probably more complex to design (and you still perhaps want convenience 
libraries on top), but definitely more flexible.
   
   I'd like to hear more of this. Perhaps a naive example to demonstrate it?
