I have a a PurePath object like so:

    path = PurePath('/home/my awesome user/file.txt')

I'm SSHing into a server and I want to remove the file. So I have to do this: 

    ssh_client.run(f'/bin/rm {shlex.quote(str(path))}')
    
Which is really long and ugly. 

I suggested in issue28623 that shlex.quote could just take a Path argument, and in issue28811 that __str__ would use shlex.quote, and it was rejected too. 

My next suggestion: Implement PurePath.quote() method that calls shlex.quote() on the path. What do you think?
