I suppose the exact behavior is still under discussion, as there are only two or three fields one gets "for free" on Windows (I think...), where as an os.stat call would get everything available for the platform.
No, Windows is nice enough to give you all the same statresult fields during scandir (via FindFirstFile/FindNextFile) as a regular os.stat(). Very nice. Even less reason then to throw it away. :)
I agree.
