At the moment you'll have to use ls. There's an ecosystem want out for a
POSIX support module with this functionality; the core sticks to portable
operations, and user and group information is different on Windows
(notably: the ownership information is SIDs / UUIDs, and it's not so much
like Unix groups defined by its members as it is an ACL defined by logical
operations).
