Github user markt-asf commented on the issue:
https://github.com/apache/tomcat/pull/109
I came very close to fixing this but in the end I opted not to.
I covered the argument for making this change in my previous comment. The
reasons against it are:
- it would be a potentially significant API change for 8.0.x, 8.5.x and
9.0.x
- the behaviour isn't formally specified anywhere and has obvious problems
with more unusual file names
- My instinct is that null is a better option here
This is probably another issue to take to the Servlet EG once it starts up
at Eclipse for clarification.
