Why did you choose an incompatible approach for PEP 383?
Because in Python, we want to be able to access all files on disk.
Neither Java nor Mono are capable of doing that.
Java is not capable of doing that. Mono, as I keep pointing out, is.
It uses NULLs to escape invalid UNIX filenames. Please see:
http://go-mono.com/docs/index.aspx?link=T%3AMono.Unix.UnixEncoding
"The upshot to all this is that Mono.Unix and Mono.Unix.Native can list,
access, and open all files on your filesystem, regardless of encoding."
