----------------------------------------

Unable to spend any time researching wget behavior, so it is unclear how to proceed with this ticket.

> Let's say the website defines a URL like this:
> http://mysite/news
> That URI actually gets mapped to a file on the web server, say http://mysite/news/index.html, but the http://mysite/news URI does exist and gets sent as the documentURI to addOrReplaceDocument().
> MCF's FileSystem connector gets the http://mysite/news URL and creates a directory for saving that content that looks like this http/mysite/news, where news is a file.
> But then if the site also defines a URL like this http://mysite/news/local/today.html, MCF's FileSystem connector fails trying to create the directory http/mysite/news/local because part of it, http/mysite/news, already exists as a file.
