Hmm maybe an interesting solution would be to add in this sort of
optional syntax:
posix path of fileString with quoting

posix path of fileString without quoting
But POSIX path is a property, so you can't really go adding parameters
like that. You're assuming it's a command.
Yeah it's not much better length-wise than:
quoted form of posix path of fileString
But it is a bit more natural and less unwieldy.
Do you think so? I think that moving the quoting part away from the
POSIX path bit and closer to the original string makes its meaning
potentially ambiguous (is it "fileString without quoting" or "posix
path without quoting"?).
