All this matters because it impacts the value returned from
__ospath__(). Should it return the string representation of the path
for the current OS or some standardized representation? I'd expect
the former. However, if that is the expectation then something like
pathlib.PureWindowsPath will give you the wrong thing if your current
OS is linux. pathlib.PureWindowsPath.__ospath__() would have to fail
or first internally convert to pathlib.PurePosixPath?
Now that Windows 10++ will run Ubuntu apps, will Python be able to tell
the difference for when it should return Windows-format paths and
Posix-format paths?
(I'm sure the answer is yes, the Python-for-Ubuntu running on Windows
would do the latter, and the Python-for-Windows would do the former.
Although, it is not clear what sys.platform will return, yet...)
