As filesystem sharing protocols have oddies between platforms that add a lot of complexity and are unsuited for the original sftp purpose.

OpenSSH has done this platform thing before. In 2008, Damien Miller introduced extensions to perform statvfs(2), df(1), and rename over sftp. The code survives to this day and the extension request remains documented in PROTOCOL.[1]

Maybe it should do it again. Timestamps are a lot less tied to the platform compared to these extensions.
