   > is this interface added after initial Unix Directory
   
   yes a lot later! This was added when we added checksums around Lucene 5.7.
   
   From the code you can also see that the read/write algorithms were never 
updated; committers just removed code or rewrote it to best guess, but the 
relics from earlier times (before Lucene 4 !!!) are still there. So IMHO this 
was never used by anybody after Lucene 3.6 !!!
   
   I would say WindowsDirectory has the same problems, so we should maybe 
simply delete it (different issue).
