As Jason pointed out elsewhere, the strict typechecks that exist *in* the 
Python core, and the fact that path.py is *outside* that core makes the 
workaround of subclassing string necessary.

Since the PEP process has the power to alter the *core*, then we have other 
options than "this is a string, only not".

Cheers,
Nick.
