The ticket would be to switch the standard libraries to use system-filepath, which probably requires a mailing list discussion somewhere, a lot of boring changes of code, and a more inconvenient API for end users. I will wait for Text to become standardized first :)
The FilePath issue has been discussed at length before. The problem is that different OS:es define file paths to be different things (i.e. Unicode or bytes.) The FilePath type somehow has to bridge that, that will be difficult. My main grip with FilePath right now is that it's not an abstract type. -- Johan
