Stephen Colebourne commented on IO-94:
--------------------------------------

As I said before, I'm unsure of the use case outside mocking, but this is a 
strange world, and someone will probably think of one... perhaps in a pipeline 
of some kind.

Certainly, the 'mock' name is inappropriate, and I agree that they are a 
parallel to the 'null' ones, but the 'null' name may be inappropriate here, not 
sure.

I suggest that we accept them as the parallel to the null inputs. Can you 
rename them to Null* (unless anyone can think of a better name) add to the 
release notes.

> I have created a MockInputStream which can be plugged in for testing parts of

> testing large files - without actually having the InputStream process large 
> amounts of bytes.
