In addition to the existing "str(pathobj)", a "path" property was recently added for that purpose:

>>> import pathlib >>> pathlib.PureWindowsPath(".") PureWindowsPath('.') >>> pathlib.PureWindowsPath(".").path '.' (The specific property name was chosen to match os.scandir's DirEntry.path)

I believe that under the current proposal, the ".path" property will be removed again in favour of the new protocol, so the only actual option would be str(pathobj).
