      path argument is Unicode.
  
-     To allow client code to determine that these features are
-     implemented, the unicodefilenames function is provided.  This
-     function returns true when the underlying system supports file
-     names containing most Unicode characters and any valid file name
-     may be passed to open as a Unicode string.

      accept 4 byte characters, the features described in this proposal
      will not work in this mode so the implementation falls back to the
!     current 'mbcs' encoding technique.

      accept 4 byte characters, the features described in this proposal
      will not work in this mode so the implementation falls back to the
!     current 'mbcs' encoding technique. This retriction could be lifted
!     in the future by performing extra conversions using
!     PyUnicode_AsWideChar but for now that would add too much
!     complexity for a very rarely used feature.
