in reply to What makes File::Find's interface so commonly hated

It can't recover from failures - I've tried using it on trees where I didn't have access to everything and it stopped as soon as it couldn't enter something. It would have been useful for it to just skip that and try the next thing. It also can't find *one* thing, let me process it, then I go back get *another* thing and I process it, etc.

The thing I didn't have permission to go into? lost+found.
