> I always dreamed about 1:1 mapping between Path and FileObject. They could delegate to each other. Always. E.g. the new methods shall never return null. Well, this PR won't make that dream true. Probably one day when someone would have a lot of time. AFAIK we need to provide a few FileSystem implementation to be able to use `Path` in all cases which are covered by `FileObject`. As of returning `null` is in sync with the current implementation. Returning `Optional` would be an outlier in the API. -- This is an automated message from the Apache Git Service.
