> A crude workaround is to script PowerShell or CMD in a child process.

I mean, that's not a *terrible* workaround:

>>> import os
>>> p1 = os.path.expandvars("%APPDATA%\\test.txt")
>>> p1
'C:\\Users\\steve\\AppData\\Roaming\\test.txt'
>>> open(p1, "w").close()
>>> os.system(f'copy "{os.path.realpath(p1)}" "{p1}"')
        1 file(s) copied.
0
>>>

But yeah, definitely crude :)
