Ivan Mitic commented on HADOOP-9438:
------------------------------------

Bq. While looking at this, I am starting to suspect that 
ParentNotDirectoryException doesn't get thrown for a lot of the FileSystem 
implementations. 
Hi Steve. This Jira seems pretty well defined at this point so if there is a 
problem with ParentNotDirectoryException my preference would be to address that 
separately. 

Bq. Would we be able to get away with changing the exception that is thrown to 
this specific error code?  As long as things were expecting any IOException 
this should still work.
Not sure I fully understand this part.
