In addition to what Roger noted, the default implementation of this
`isCompleted()` method and the default implementation of `getLocation()` method
a few lines below seem to contradict each other. `isCompleted()` by default
returns `true` implying a resource node type but `getLocation()` by default
throws an exception, implying a non-resource node type.
