Comment:

 When I looked at the
 [http://twistedmatrix.com/trac/browser/tags/releases/twisted-10.1.0/twisted/python/filepath.py
 code for FilePath] recently, it wasn't clear to me whether it properly
 supported Unicode paths. (It might to the extent that the {{{os.path}}}
 operations it's using do, but it didn't seem to have been explicitly
 considered, i.e. if the underlying {{{path}}} can be a Unicode string then
 that would only work by coincidence.) Unicode path support is critical for
 Windows; if this is not supported then it would be a regression to switch
 from {{{unicode}}} strings to {{{FilePath}}}.
