I really don't like the idea of not being able to use bytes in cross platform code. Unless it's become feasible to use Unicode for lossless filenames on Linux - last I heard it wasn't.
It has, but only in Python 3 - anyone who needs to support 2.7 and arbitrary bytes in filenames can't use Unicode strings.
