(Just trying to get some more details - I have no particular opinion per se as I
tend to almost exclusively use Dir[] myself, so this is more for ruby users who
use Pathname in general.)
Would this change have any potential backwards incompatibility/problem? This is
a genuine question, by the way, I really don't know, since I don't use Pathname
since many years, and I have no pro/con opinion about the suggestion itself.
