Probably a good idea. I would call it canonical_path or something like
that. / works quite happily as a path separator in almost all contexts
on Windows - there are a handful of command line programs that choke on
it - but sometimes you need to quote the path. WHen I recently provided
for cross version upgrade testing on MSVC builds I just quoted
everything. On Unix/Msys the shell just removes the quotes.
