I started an email thread about this, but it seems like a bug is a better way to track this.

I'd like to have an API in dart:io for receiving notifications about file system changes. In other words, a Dart-level API that corresponds to (and probably uses) inotify and FSEvents.

I created a file watching package (pkg/watcher in the repo) that exposes the API I want to consume. Currently, it's implemented using polling. Ideally, you'd be able to rewrite the internal implementation using this API without having to change its public interface at all.
