Andrés Delfino  added the comment:

Closing, as __fspath__ returns paths and fnmatchcase/filter deals with 
filenames.

[issue35396] Add support for __fspath__ to fnmatch.fnmatchase and filter

[Andrés Delfino]

New submission from Andrés Delfino :

Both fnmatch.fnmatchase and fnmatch.filter (in Unix) do not support path-like 
objects.

This is inconvenient, for example, when taking advantage of os.scandir and 
working with os.DirEntry objets.

Also, fnmatch.filter in Windows does support path-like objects, since it uses 
os.path.normcase (which works with path-like objects), so the change for Unix 
would add consistency.

I propose for both functions to accept path-like objects, and in the case of 
fnmatch.filter, to return the path-like object if it matches the pattern (as it 
does now for Windows).
