Arfrever, great question. But the underlying Java platform doesn't support this scenario anyway: >>> from java.io import File >>> File("/tmp/somedir").list() returns None I wouldn't rule out supporting bytestring filenames, with C support in a future release. But it's a lot of work, and it's not going to be in 2.7.0, per what we can reasonably triage :)
