Harsh J commented on HADOOP-7945:
---------------------------------
Am thinking it might just be better to document this and add a test case (that'd fail the
day its fixed).
Maybe this approach could cause incompatibility, as am not sure if there are ways to 'tweak'
the Path into accepting ":" (escaped/encoded).
Another character that causes issue is a slash in the filename itself, even if escaped/encoded.
> Document that Path objects do not support ":" in them.
