Please focus on what was accepted in the PEP. We should first test os.scandir(). In a few months, with better feedbacks, we can consider extending os.scandir() to support a file descriptor. There are different issues which should be discussed and decided to implement it (ex: handle the lifetime of the directory file descriptor).
