> The method is checking for absolute path correctly. When scheme and authority are present, the path is absolute. So the following comment needs to be removed.

>   /**
>    * There is some ambiguity here. An absolute path is a slash
>    * relative name without a scheme or an authority.
>    * So either this method was incorrectly named or its
>    * implementation is incorrect. This method returns true
>    * even if there is a scheme and authority.
