Michael McCandless commented on LUCENE-2818:
--------------------------------------------

+1 I think this'd be a good simplification of IW/IR code.  I don't mind that IO 
would know how to delete the partial file it had created; that seems fair.

So eg CompoundFileWriter would abort its output file on hitting any exception.

I think we can make a default impl that simply closes & suppresses exceptions?  
(We can't .deleteFile since an abstract IO doesn't know its Dir).  Our concrete 
impls can override w/ versions that do delete the file...

> I'd like to see abort() method on IndexOutput that silently (no exceptions)

> This will simplify a bunch of error recovery code for IndexWriter and
