Eugene Kirpichov commented on BEAM-3796:
----------------------------------------
I don't think this is worth doing. FileIO.write is quite concise to use, so I
don't see a point in adding its entire API surface to XmlIO, and I don't think
it would set a good example for other file-based IOs. If FileIO.write had
existed earlier, XmlIO would never even have become an IO, and would just have
stayed a Sink, as nothing distinguishes it from other file-based IOs except for
the format of the files it writes.

> I mean similar implementation that is there in TextIO or AvroIO. Users could
> leverage things like getPerDestinationFilenames() directly from the IO
> without the need to use FileIO explicitly.
