Hello,
I created #517419 for this.

I suppose the directory can be changed but no other name crossed my mind 
then.
Also, it could be linked-in just like the inotify monitor, given that, 
on windows, ReadDirectoryChangesW is in kernel32.dll
Oh, and I suppose I have to deal with the short filenames bug Ali mentioned.
