So action=create object=directory you want to be sure that you create a directory? What if it already exists? Since you want to be sure to create, will you erase and re-create? You see the kind of misunderstanding this could create... IOW, self ensureCreateMisunderstanding

We discuss a lot with camillo when we did it and I think that this is good right now.
Out of curiosity, what was the motivation behind Issue 10924: Simplifying ensure* and create protocol?
For me #ensureCreateDirectory is less intention revealing than #ensureDirectory because the "ensure" means "create only if necessary", not "definitely create" a directory. What am I missing? Thanks.
