> The Pyarrow lib (using LIBHDFS) appears to default to a SkipTrash option 
> (which is _not_ the Hadoop default behavior).  This turned out to be a pretty 
> major issue for a recent project.  The HadoopFileSystem `delete` method 
> currently has a default behavior of `recursive=False` I would believe a 
> similar `skipTrash=False` default would be appropriate here.
> Or, if this is not possible it may be appropriate and best to print a 
> `WARNING` or something to the console to warn users that this is a 
> point-of-no-return.
> The 2 below tests show the difference in default behaviors between `hadoop 
> fs` shell commands and the default `pyarrow` behavior.
