I think getting away from "File" is good. By analogy with "OS", for
convenience, and in keeping with common usage, I like "FS". Today,

PS: If some class is named "Filesystem" someday, the "S" shouldn't be
capitalized: "filesystem" is an established single term in CS.
"Filesys" maybe as a short form?
