I don't remember (should probably check) if you previously proposed
implementing exactly that in C, but I indeed agree with what you write
above, except that I don't like the "_raw_" prefix in the name. I
would be willing to call that simply fspath though, since as mentioned
before in this thread (I think by Brett and me), the reasons for
rejecting bytes in fspath are really quite minor.
