You definitely can add the File-related bugzilla numbers that prevent
you from getting work done. (Allow me to add some meta-text here - the
above paragraph's rhetoric is exactly what I'm talking about that
doesn't help. If the focus is adding value, then mentioning the exact
issues would definitely be better than sarcastic hyperbole.)

This is "Issue 7648 - std.stdio expects file names to be encoded in CP_ACP on Windows instead of UTF-8" [1]. I also opened a pull with cautionary note [2].
