As currently specified, if neither the READ or WRITE option is present 
then the method defaults to opening an existing file for reading. This 
makes it easy for the common case but perhaps non-intuitive when other 
options are present (in particular options that are usually only 
relevant for writing, or reading + writing). I'll note this as something 
to re-examine after JavaOne.
