That was the original proposal back in JDK 1.4 when this API was being 
developed. There were several issues at the time, including I think 
security issues on the versions of Windows at the time, and I don't 
think anyone has got back to it. So best to create an issue for it and 
bring a patch to nio-dev to discuss.
