Does anyone anticipate any classes other than those from pathlib to come
with such a method?


It seems like it would be reasonable for pathlib.Path to call fspath on the
path passed to pathlib.Path.__init__, which would mean that if other libraries
implemented __fspath__ then you could pass their path objects to pathlib and
it would just work (and similarly, if they also called fspath it would enable
interoperation between all of the various path libraries).

Indeed, but my question is: is this actually going to happen? Are there
going to be other libraries that will implement __fspath__, and will
there be demand for pathlib to support them?

There will be at least one.  :)
