I'm sure this has been hashed out somewhere I wasn't looking, but i would really prefer for pathname ops not to be mixed in to the Str class. Maybe they could be put in a Pathname subclass of Str, with a simple literal syntax or short unary operator to build such a thing from a string?
I'm inclined to agree that Str is the wrong place for them. I could see Str being autoconverted to some kind of File class which had them, though.
