Raghu Angadi commented on HADOOP-2381:
--------------------------------------

returning null is fine except that all the callers apps should test for null as 
Doug mentioned. Since this is rarely supposed to fail and most of the time 
these are invoked in contexts that throw IOException anyway.


> Support permission information in FileStatus
