Gary D. Gregory commented on IO-839:
------------------------------------
The most common use case (aside from Commons Compress, at my work for example)
is to read a file, transform it in some way and save the output, for example,
from some/place/source.foo to some/other/place/target.bar, where in addition
you use the base name "foo" for naming other artifacts, in files or other
storage from MongoDB to an RDBMS. Sometimes the "foo" file is in XML or JSON
but you want to use the base name, leaving out the extension.
