> Calling Location#delete(), without recursive parameter will not delete the files if there are files within the specified Location.
> However, with LocalLocation, the method simply returns false.
> With HDFSLocation, the method throws an exception.
> It seems that the behavior of both Location implementations should be consistent.
> Attached is a stacktrace from a program that utilizes Location, and in the stack trace, the exception can be seen due to the call to HDFSLocation#delete.
