Felix Meschberger commented on SLING-2626:
------------------------------------------
I think it is not clearly specified what happens if the path is given as null.
Looking at the JavaDoc of the getResource(Resource, String) method, though, I
would assume that it is considered an error situation if the path is null.
Hence I would prefer throwing an Exception instead of just returning null.
On the other hand, we could be lenient return null (as proposed) assuming a
resource without a path just does not exist and we return this as such.

> ResourceResolverImpl.getResource(Resource base, String path), which makes the
