Guido van Rossum added the comment: Random idea: what if pathlib.Path defined a .path attribute that was a plain string? Then you could write p.path instead of str(p), and "if hasattr(p, 'path'): p = p.path". This would be the new protocol. Advantage is also that DirEntry (returned by the new os.scandir()) already supports it. :-)
