There is currently no way for os.FileMode.IsRegular to report false without being one of the following types: ModeDir | ModeSymlink | ModeNamedPipe | ModeSocket | ModeDevice This makes it difficult for custom implementations of os.FileInfo to return a Mode that is explicitly not regular without resorting to setting one of the types listed above. However, every one of the aforementioned types are ill-suited as a general-purpose "not regular" file type. Thus, add a ModeIrregular to serve exactly for that purpose. The ModeIrregular type carries no information other than the fact that the file is not regular.
