Doug Cutting commented on HADOOP-2381:
--------------------------------------
I think it would be better if the default value of
FileStatus#getPermissionStatus is non-null. Otherwise we're just making
applications do a bunch of null testing. Better they should just get a default
version that says they own the file and they can do anything with it, no?
> Support permission information in FileStatus
