Yes, but don't provide it as a utility method will have the following 
effects:
- users will not using Path API
- users will create a File from a Path to call mkdirs()
- users will create their own code
So I think it's a good idea to create this helper method in Paths.

By the way, there is also no way to get a File from a Path
for the default FileSystem.
So the compatibility between File and Path is only
in one way. This will  delay the adoption of the Path API.
