Comment:

 This is an enhancement, and we are in 12 days until Beta 1 after which we
 will not add new enhancement to the release, so, because there is no
 patch, I am moving this ticket to 6.4.

 As far as I understand, the question now is if we need a new
 `wp_get_attachment_image_path( $attachment_id, $size )` function or not,
 please continue discussion and look for use cases. From my point of view
 it is better to check that the file exists before using it for the
 frontend otherwise you can end with broken images, and it isn't looks
 nice. For example, new image size was added and used at some place but old
 images didn't regenerate. So, checking if image exists, we can use
 different size and avoid broken images to appear.
