is the complete description for Ada.Directories available?

Maybe it would be better if there were another package hierachy in 
which language standardised packages are placed (other than Ada)
allowing different companies/individuals to create these packages,
rather than relying on compiler vendors to do the work (as is
required by the Ada standard).

If needed the packages could also be known in the Ada hierachy
some time later via a renames.

E.g. You could allow people to create child packages of Standard,
(although given this is special cased by some compilers). Perhaps 
package Ada.Library could be seen as the extension point for packages
specified by the language, but allowed to be supplied by the user.
