Naively, this seems wrong to me. Yes, Windows sometimes allows you to use forward slashes, but that is not the path separator which Windows users are most often presented with in terms of documentation, screen shots, presentation in Explorer, etc. My feeling is that the default behavior on Windows needs to be to use backslashes and not forward slashes. Having an option to canonicalize in the other direction would be reasonable, as does differing what the default is based on the target.
