File interface

 

It there any reason that we use the letter-envelope design for file IO
(i.e. the object File) rather than plain XMLFile, VTKFile, etc? The
latter would simplify the design, especially as we add more elaborate
IO. It's already a little clumsy because, at least in the case of VTK,
the common File interface does take arguments are specific to one
backend.
