@barney, I am not sure that I understand your question.

I think adding another method `Pathlib.Path` and `Pathlib._Accessor` is my preferred way. The would be something like:

    class _NormalAccessor(_Accessor):
       ...
       self.move = shutil.move
    

    class Path:
       ....

       def move(self, src, dest):
          self._accessor.move(self, target)
          return self.__class__(target)


Now, this is hardly a patch. I need to submit a PR with proper docs, tests and NEWS entry... I will be glad to work on it. However, I guess I need someone to "sponsor" it and merge it.
