All is in the summary.
I don't think there's any good reason not to replace the Object return value for a String one.

Benjamin, while this may seem trivial (and very odd), the method signature is API and, sadly, cannot just be changed. You will need to cast the result to a String yourself.

Closing as WONTFIX.
