Sorry, your response indicated that there are exceptions Interix would not handle. Not giving up, I'd propose a global switch for Interix, and if particular path cannot be represented - fallback to... Cygwin's representation. If ugly for the universe, forget, I'll have to cope with egh... a "converter" for majority of cases and manual editing for minority.
