I'm not really convinced that it's that non-invasive. createDirectoryIfMissing
is a library routine, so we would need to come up with a new name to pass the
Recursive | NotRecursive parameter to anyway. (Yes, we have a Workaround for
createDirectoryIfMissing, but I think changing signatures of library functions
will only add confusion...)
