+ rdfs:comment """
+This extension provides a mechanism for plugins to create new files for
+storing arbitrary data (e.g. waveforms), which can be persisted using
+the <a href="http://lv2plug.in/ns/ext/persist">LV2 Persist</a> extension.
+This allows plugins to work with potentially very large data via files,
+and save/restore these files.
+
+The motivating idea behind this extension is that all details of file
+management must be handled by the host in whatever way is most appropriate for
+that host. Plugins MUST NOT make any assumption about filesystem locations
+beyond what is explicitly guaranteed by this extension.
+
+To create a new file, plugins request a filename from the host. This way,
+the host is aware of files used by the plugin and can use an appropriate
+location for them that the plugin alone could not know (e.g. using an
+appropriate disk volume for recording).
+
+Plugins may also use pre-existing files from elsewhere on the filesystem.
+Using the LV2 Persist extension, the host can save both these types of files
+in an appropriate way (by e.g. storing a link, or copying the file to export
+or archive a project).

+ rdfs:label "Support for plugin-created files" ;
+ rdfs:comment """
+This feature allows plugins to use pre-existing or newly created files,
+and files them (e.g. across project saves and restores). If a host supports
+this feature it passes a LV2_Files_FileSupport structure to the plugins
+instantiate method as a feature (with URI
+http://lv2plug.in/ns/ext/files#FileSupport). This structure provides
+a function the plugin can use to create new file names. If and only if the
+host supports this feature, the plugin MAY files and restore values of
+type LV2_FILES_FILENAME.
+
+A plugin SHOULD use this facility to create any new files it may need
+(e.g. samples, waveforms for recording). Plugins MUST NOT expect their
+state to be correctly restored if they do not use this mechanism to
+create new files.

+The full path to a file on the local filesystem. The format of a
+files:filePath is a C string (escaped or otherwise restricted in whatever way
+necessary for the system). This URI (http://lv2plug.in/ns/ext/files#FilePath),
+mapped to an integer, should be used as the <code>type</code> parameter with
+the LV2 Persist extension to persist a file. When persisting a files:FilePath,
+the plugin MUST NOT assume that the same path will be restored (i.e. the
+host MAY choose to store the file elsewhere). The plugin may, of course,
+assume that the actual contents of the file are equivalent when restored.
