Yes, i know this topic has been discussed for many times. However, i
am still not clear about the real reason.

So which is the reason?

1. it's by design, intentional
2. unclear logic, for example, whether to remove the directory after
the last file in it is deleted
3. hard work, no one has picked it yet
4. hardly done in current model
