 The main reason for specifying the type of the memory segment is that
 we might eventually want to other type of shared segment, such as
 non-file based one or Windows-specific one.  And, at least the file
 based segment is special in that we need to create and maintain files
 somewhere, so some kind of path information would have to be
 configured (even if it has some default and can be omitted).  If
 there's a better abstraction that meets such requirement and still
 hides lower level details, I'm okay with that.
