            Bug ID: 255932
           Summary: [GLib] Lobotomize FileSystemGlib.cpp
           Product: WebKit
           Version: WebKit Nightly Build
          Hardware: PC
                OS: Linux
            Status: NEW
          Severity: Normal
          Priority: P2
         Component: WebKitGTK
          Assignee: webkit-unassigned at lists.webkit.org
          Reporter: mcatanzaro at redhat.com
                CC: bugs-noreply at webkitgtk.org

Most of FileSystemGlib.cpp is redundant with FileSystemPOSIX.cpp. There is no good reason to implement the POSIX-style WTF::Filesystem APIs using GIO when we have access to POSIX. FileSystemGlib.cpp is now going to rather extreme lengths to work around impedance between the GIO and POSIX APIs, and it's much simpler to just use POSIX.
