[issue19725] Richer stat object

[Philip Jenvey]

Philip Jenvey added the comment:

I can't find the paper trail of what I originally thought was a "consensus" or 
even that many clear pronouncements about it, but I recall Nick being 
originally opposed to it but he later changed his mind, you can see his 
approval here:

'It's also quite likely the "rich stat object" API will be pursued for 3.5'

Antoine seems ok w/ it, encouraging others to make it happen:

You can probably find a bit more discussion within those threads

@Philip could you provide a reference to (say) discussions on python-dev for 
lesser mortals such as myself?

[Philip Jenvey]

New submission from Philip Jenvey:

With discussion of the new Pathlib API there's been suggestion (and maybe even 
already consensus) that some of the convenience APIs provided by it should 
exist on stat result objects.

It's maybe too late for 3.4, but let's track exactly what additions are wanted
