Martin Oberhuber commented on NET-200:
--------------------------------------
Or, is there a case for more differentiation e.g. FTPFile#DEVICE_TYPE /
FTPFile#PIPE_TYPE / FTPFile#SOCKET_TYPE and the like ? I'd guess that an FTP
client can never make much use of these kinds of filesystem nodes anyways...
although a cat /proc/meminfo is often useful on Linux, so perhaps at least
character special files should be treated as files?
