        I did an attempt to get this in Boost.Serialization, but author doesn't like it. See https://svn.boost.org/trac/boost/ticket/5192. I do not agree with his arguments though (filesystem is a quite library stable, so there is not a big chance of high maintenance work; the dependency is also little, it can be in one header file; there is already a dependency from Serialization on external libraries such as on shared_ptr). I suppose this idea is dead then?
