Carsten Ziegeler commented on SLING-3457:
-----------------------------------------
I'm not sure if we should do this. If the method returns "true" I would expext
that the resource is a NonExistingResource and therefore then call any method
on the resource object which then results in an NPE.
Even the same if the method would return "false", so I think a NPE is the best
option here. at some point the client code has to check whether the resource is
null or not
> Change ResourceUtil.isNonExistingResource(null) to return true instead of NPE.
