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

             Summary: NonExistingResource.getParent() should not return null in case the parent is non-existing
                 Key: SLING-5757
                 URL: https://issues.apache.org/jira/browse/SLING-5757
             Project: Sling
          Issue Type: Bug
    Affects Versions: API 2.11.0
            Reporter: Konrad Windszus
            Assignee: Konrad Windszus


Currently {{NonExistingResource.getParent()}} returns {{null}} in case the parent does not exist either. According to the javadoc of {{Resource.getParent()}}  {{null}} should only be returned when the current resource is already the root resource. 
Therefore {{NonExistingResource.getParent()}} should rather return a {{NonExistingResource}} as well, in case the parent does not exist.
