I don't see a failure on Windows 7 (64-bit) either, but the forward slashes are
visible in the path for the dnd file on the status bar.  After the patch is
applied, they are displayed as expected with backslashes.

Any more thoughts on "The Right Way"?  Another thought though ... it's been
over a year since this bug was filed; might it be better to commit the patch
and have the result be correct at the minor expense of doing the conversion in
2 places rather than the result being incorrect ... at least until "The Right
Way" is determined?  You know, just in case another year goes by. :)
