I think we need to be more specific and say what is the minimum

But only if someone actually cares about keeping gcc8 support :)
I'm pretty sure we can live without std::filesystem, given that we have
QFile
and KIO. I would actually find it confusing to see code that starts
using a
third subsystem for this, at least until proving that it's way
better....
We discussed that yesterday in the modern C++ sub-group, too.
The consensus there was more or less that if people use std::filesystem,
they can interface with Qt/KDE via the overloads Qt provides, e.g. for
QFile
https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/qfile.html
and others and we should not start to add overloads or extra
slots/signals
with std::filesystem overloads to Frameworks.
