Two points in response to above: > That however makes the type rather useless and use would never know if a path is valid or not before checking it with an ObjectStore. To be clear, this describes the Path type today. A user does not know if a path is valid before checking with an object store. > We could at least offer a is_path_valid method, but given how weird some stores / providers are, I bet you'll need to make that async/IO-driven as well. Most object stores APIs give a pretty clear definition of what's valid and what isn't for a given bucket, I don't think such a method would need to reach out to them at runtime to find out the rules. A user might need to figure out some details at runtime to pass to `is_path_valid()`, for example I _think_ that a blob path with a trailing slash is valid in Azure iff hierarchical namespaces are not enabled. So they'd need to provide that info. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
