Right. For swift staging you need to specify a filesystem type that
swift will use to do the actual copying between the swift side and
wherever the jobs are submitted to. This is the legacy way of dealing
with data in swift.

"Wrapper" you might not want to use. We are still working on the finer
details of that.
