> The method {{TypeDescriptor#getConstraintsForMethod()}} always returns a {{MethodDescriptor}}, also if the specified method is actually unconstrained. This differs from the behavior of {{BeanDescriptor#getConstraintsForProperty()}} which returns {{null}} if the specified property has no constraints.
> This change might break clients relying on the current behavior, but nevertheless we should change this IMO better earlier than later.
