So, I can treat an FTP file object the same as a WebDAV file object? I've got code that relies upon that abstraction and it works very nicely. We just use a regular disk file during unit testing and we use WebDAV in production with no changes to the code (just configuration).

Yes!
I haven't changed the API so far and I do not plan to do so. There are just a
few changes in the contract VFS had with some of it's abstract methods in
AbstractFileObject. Nothing too serious so far.
If your code does something like this ...
FileObject fo = VFS.getManager().resolveFile(ftp://xyz/;);
if (fo.getType().hasChildren())
{
// traverse fo
fo.getChildren();
}
... you should not see any changes. But you could also not expect any
performance increase as you called getType().
With the commits today you will be able to:
FileObject fo = VFS.getManager().resolveFile(ftp://xyz/;);
// traverse fo
fo.getChildren();
This will no longer call getType(), not in your code nor within VFS. Thus, it
is no longer required to list the parent directory which was a real pain.
You will get a FileNotFolderException from getChildren() if the file wasn't a
directory instead.
Both modes work in parallel. It just depends on the way how you use the VFS API.

Project: Commons VFS
Issue Type: Improvement
Affects Versions: 1.0
Reporter: Mario Ivankovits
Assignee: Mario Ivankovits
Fix For: 2.0
VFS should behave more like a wrapper to the underlaying library than a full
blown filesystem.
This should solve the following problems:
* access of hidden files/directories
* access to special folders
* speed up FTP access

Our application needs to be able to move files around when the user needs them. So, we use VFS as an abstraction so we can change the implementation (we currently use WebDAV) if we want to. We really love the VFS API for this! Thanks for all your hard work!
