To be honest, have you seen anybody using "wide-path" outside of Windows scope? Do you actually need such "wide-path" for POSIX platforms?
Well, we actually use wide paths all around in our code, and Boost.Filesystem does a great job at providing a portable API for all platforms, including POSIX. Personally, I think that wide paths are more convenient than UTF-8 since it is easier to apply string processing algorithms on them.
