Comment (by daira):

 Replying to [comment:5 daira]:
 > * Paths prefixed with "`\\?\`" must be absolute, but CLI commands accept
 relative paths. Also, they don't canonicalize in the same way, e.g. "`..`"
 and "`.`" are not supported.

 Given this constraint, the best place to prepend "`\\?\`" would probably
 be in `fileutil.abspath_expanduser_unicode`.
