That doesn't solve the problem I mentioned earlier for arbitrary file
names coming out of zip archives. And then your data model is not
bytes, but Unicode scalar values. We could of course accept
information loss of some kind in the conversion process between zip
archive resources and File objects and require developers to keep
track of that if they care.
