Comment:
I don't see why a new configurability mechanism would be needed. There's
already [https://docs.djangoproject.com/en/1.9/ref/settings/#default-file-
storage DEFAULT_FILE_STORAGE] for this purpose.
Even if it's entirely doable to subclass `FileSystemStorage` to implement
this behavior and configure it in DEFAULT_FILE_STORAGE, I think Django
could provide such a storage backend natively e.g. as
`django.core.files.storage.OverwritingFileSystemStorage`. (Better names
welcome.)
`OverwritingFileSystemStorage` would likely be a superclass of
`FileSystemStorage` because it has fewer features.
I'm accepting the ticket but I'd like another core dev to confirm before
we move forwards with a patch.
