I don't see any particular reason for supporting wide strings, neither in Boost.Filesystem or Interprocess. If everything was in "utf8-mode", we can just use std:::string. Of course, both libraries needs to do custom stuff under the hood (e.g. converting to utf16 on windows before calling the windows api).

I'm really ignorant on encoding and unicode issues, but I guess windows users don't expect "char *" or std::string to be utf-8 encoded. Best, Ion
