Why did you you choose the 8bit encoding version? I'd prefer that
you use the wide version of it because I am forecasting that this
will not work for non latin file names, or just use the same macro
as what's done in the Qt source.
Does this mean the lyx code is also wrong?
Or is the comment correct?
"// We can use to_local8bit, since file system encoding and the
// local 8 bit encoding are identical on windows."
I am not sure what happens on a, say, Chinese Vista.

We should have a Qt function, then we don't have to think about it. ;)
File a suggestion and send me a link.
4.5 is in feature freeze, though, so this won't hit the shelves before
next summer, then it takes a year to be picked up by the distributions
and two more years to reach LyX. So that would be a 2012 improvement ;-}
Well Windows and Mac packages distribute Qt libs so that's not too
problematic for those two platforms. And Windows is the platform we're
discussing right now...
