There is <http://www.forth200x.org/directories1.html> (withdrawn due
to lack of support), which is based on POSIX 2004: filename characters
are letters, digits, and . _ -.  The directory separator is "/".  Case
must match, but no file names that differ only in case must occur in
the same directory.  Etc.

That works pretty universally on all platforms that want to be
relavant.  My guess is that the lack of support for this proposal came
from it being so mundane.

That's <http://www.forth200x.org/directories.html> (withdrawn due to
vigorous resistance; there is a new team that has taken up this task,
and I wish them good luck).
