-------------------------------------
Thanks for the review Steve! Your amendments make sense to me. I'll start
preparing a patch for HADOOP-16085 that builds on this.

> S3A input stream doesn't handle changing source files any better than the
> other cloud store connectors. Specifically: it doesn't noticed it has
> changed, caches the length from startup, and whenever a seek triggers a new
> GET, you may get one of: old data, new data, and even perhaps go from new
> data to old data due to eventual consistency.
> We can't do anything to stop this, but we could detect changes by
> # caching the etag of the first HEAD/GET (we don't get that HEAD on open with
> S3Guard, BTW)
> # on future GET requests, verify the etag of the response
> # raise an IOE if the remote file changed during the read.
> It's a more dramatic failure, but it stops changes silently corrupting things.
