The spec has to allow for very varied provider implementations so this 
is why it is up to the implementation whether FileSystemProvider#getPath 
can create the FileSystem or not. There will be cases where the 
FileSystem is just a mirror to a remote file system for example. In any 
case, for the zip provider then I agree, it would be best for it to be 
created by the constructor (and have FileSystemProvider#getPath fail 
with FileSystemNotFoundException if it does not exist).
