Using Boost just for the filesystem would be a nuke, but if we subsequently 
encourage developers to use more parts of it in other areas of the code this 
doesn't hold anymore. :-)
Personally I think that while many dependencys are bad, depending on a few 
well known and maintained libs is better then to duplicate the code 
everywhere.
