Description
Description
The following code:
<?php
$iter = new RecursiveDirectoryIterator('ftp://ftp.belnet.be/', \RecursiveDirectoryIterator::SKIP_DOTS);
var_dump($iter->current());
$iter->next();
var_dump($iter->current());
$iter->rewind();
Resulted in this output:
Warning: FilesystemIterator::rewind(): stream does not support seeking
But I expected this output instead:
support should not be related with seeking support

Research direction
Start with the provided RecursiveDirectoryIterator reproduction and trace FilesystemIterator::rewind() for ftp:// streams, including the stream's seeking capability. Compare iterator rewind semantics with the expected behavior and add or update a regression test for the warning; done means rewinding does not incorrectly require seeking support.
