Hence I'm +1 on the general idea but -1 on something stat like. IMHO os.scandir() should yield four objects:
* name * inode * file type or DT_UNKNOWN * stat_result or None
stat_result shall only be returned when the operating systems provides a full stat result as returned by os.stat().
But what if some systems return more than the file type and less than a full stat result? The general problem is POSIX's terrible inertia. I feel that a stat result with some None fields would be an acceptable compromise here. Regards Antoine.
