New submission from Brendan Moloney: As per a discussion on python-ideas [1], the consensus is that we should allow users to create a DirEntry object themselves. This would just take a path and call stat on it and cache the result of that stat call.
Nick Coghlan mentioned possibly allowing a pre-existing stat result to optionally be passed into the constructor [2].
