Details

We would like to provide web extension APIs to allow dweb networking protocols (SSB, IPFS, Dat) to be added to firefox in form of extensions. As it turns out at least on of them SSB makes use of [fs.link](https://nodejs.org/docs/latest/api/fs.html#fs_fs_link_existingpath_newpath_callback). Could we add OS.File.link to support that use case ? I'd be willing to do the work, but would require mentoring.

OSFIle is being replaced with IOUtils and PathUtils. It looks like the work on dweb has stalled, so I'm going to close this. If this is still required, please re-open.
