> ViewFileSystem doesn't override FileSystem#getLinkTarget(). So, when view filesystem is used to resolve the symbolic links, the default FileSystem implementation throws UnsupportedOperationException.
> The proposal is to define getLinkTarget() for ViewFileSystem and invoke the target FileSystem for resolving the symbolic links. Path thus returned is preferred to be a viewfs qualified path, so that it can be used again on the ViewFileSystem handle.
