Michael Dürig commented on OAK-563:
-----------------------------------

I still don't think {{PathNotFoundException}} is the right exception when in 
fact an invalid argument has been passed to the method. In the {{JcrUtils}} 
example above you could pass virtually everything which is not a valid path to 
the path argument and always get the default value in return. This opens room 
for programming errors to go undetected. 

However since this seems to be a backward compatibility issue, what we could do 
to give at least the callers who want to differentiate between the two error 
cases is to add a cause for the exception (e.g. {{IllegalArgumentException}}).

> As a fallout of OAK-553 there are some inconsistency in method naming in 
> {{SessionDelegate}} now. We should align the names of the ...OrThrow methods. 
> That is, drop the OrThrow suffixes.
