Comment (by dd32):

 It makes sense to expand the coverage of the MockFS classes, originally I
 implemented the bare basics so that it was possible to test the feature I
 was looking at (which required nothing more than directory transversal).

 It might be a good idea to look at alternative Virtual Filesystems which
 exist in the PHP land before investing too heavily here, for example:
 - https://github.com/adlawson/vfs.php  (MIT PHP 5.4)
 - https://github.com/thornag/php-vfs  (GPL3+ PHP 5.4)
 - https://github.com/mikey179/vfsStream (BSD PHP 5.3)

 If we can leverage one of these existing projects (and contribute back any
 features we need) I think we'll be much better off than just implementing
 a bunch of extra features ourselves.

 Most of these projects seem to be using extra PHP streams functionality in
 PHP 5.4, I don't think that's a blocker to using them though.

 Does anyone else have any thoughts here?
