Comment(by kevan):

 Okay, so what operations would be good to have here?

 My list so far:

   * Publishing a mutable file.
   * Publishing an immutable file.
   * Downloading a mutable file.
   * Downloading an immutable file.
   * Replacing a mutable file
   * Modifying a mutable file (in the sense of, say, adding an entry to a
 directory)
   * Using {{{tahoe backup}}}
   * Verification
   * Checking/Repair
   * Listing a directory

 The only code in that list that I'm intimately familiar with is the upload
 code, so if I'm separating operations that aren't very different into
 different categories, that's why (and please let me know if you think I
 am!).

 What other operations might I think of including?
