Steve Loughran commented on HADOOP-12718:
-----------------------------------------

-1 as is. Afraid you're going to have to adopt Chris's recommendations of using 
{{FileUtil.canRead()}}. I think we could also take the opportunity to tighten 
the docs: "this is what you do if you can't read' a path". 

Ideally, I'd like some results on what happens on a windows test run, though 
that's going to depend on HADOOP-13586. Maybe now is a good time to fix that.

We really need the full FS shell command suite pulled out into its own abstract 
suite and then implemented  by the subclasses, just as any other contract. I'll 
leave that for another time.
