Thanks, this was an editing issue. Removed.
I think the javadoc looks quite good now, except may be the first statement "Reads some bytes ...". It might be clearer to start with "Reads a given number of bytes ...". The subsequent text makes the short read case and the return value clear.


As Alan has commented, another readAllBytes() returning a byte[] maybe useful 
too ( but a different use case ). Let’s park this momentarily, while I sketch 
up the readAllBytes variant, so we can ensure that the typical use cases have 
been addressed. Doing so may feedback into the spec of this method.  I’ll push 
this latest draft into the sandbox so it is not lost.
Yes, a separate use-case but once that I would expect to be common.
