Description

The o.a.j.spi.Path interface declares most methods to throw a RepositoryEx, whereas a o.a.j.spi.commons.conversion.NameEx (or another specific exception) would make more sense, since the RepositoryEx is too generic for what seems to be a "malformed names/path" nature for all things that happen in a Path implementation.
