Thank you, David. What you said, makes sense and I agree with you.

[issue32807] Add 'str' property to PathLib

[R. David Murray]

R. David Murray  added the comment:

That was kind of an abrupt message, let me be more verbose: thank you for 
wanting to improve python, but as Serhiy pointed out we already solved the 
problem you are considering via PEP 519.  In addition to that we consider 
str(x) to be the right way to get the string representation of something.  
Adding an attribute containing the string value is not how python operates in 
general, so we wouldn't make an exception for this class (and note that this 
possibility was discussed in the lead up to PEP 519 and rejected).

Because the bots were saying, 'skip news', 'skip issue' labels are not found.

and currently for the feature, the PR should be based on master and not 3.5 or 
3.6. because these branch are only for the security and bugfix modes.

[issue32807] Add 'str' property to PathLib

[Arka]

New submission from Arka :

Add 'str' property to PurePath in PathLib that calls __str__ function and 
returns the string representation of the path. It is easier to use than 
str(Path). Many existing methods accept only strings as a path.
