+1 for inode support. I agree with the above -- it should either raise AttributeError on Windows if it's not going to be set ... or it should be more like Victor's original proposal where .inode() is a method that calls stat on Windows. I don't have strong feelings. The whole point of scandir is to expose low-level system calls in a cross-platform way. If you start raising some exceptions on some platforms then that quality disappears.
I agree with that!
