DrupalCon Portland 2013: THROW NEW \DRUPAL\CORE\INITIATIVE\ FILEMANAGEMENT\FAILUREEXCEPTION();

Problem: The unofficial File Management Initiative did not meet a lot of its own goals for Drupal 8 core and has been slow to progress.

To answer our goal and proposed solutions, we have to first answer the following questions:
* What did actually get done?
* Why didn't we accomplish our goals?
* Can we still accomplish what we wanted to from contrib for Drupal 8?
* What are our plans to improve things in Drupal 9?

We'll be taking a look at the solutions and improvements that have gone into the File entity and Media modules and how they can relate to improvements in core.
