   This PR doesn't look bad, but just by way of feedback, the idea has been considered in the past and, while many thought such functionality might be useful, there was also debate about possible other implementations, e.g. as one possibility, whether Groovy truth should return true or false for an existing but empty file. So, we'll probably let it sit for a little bit longer to see if anyone comments. I think this was thought of as best among multiple possibilities but at the time since there was not unanimous consensus, we decided to not go forward at the time.
