Summary of the new feature/enhancement

PowerShell aims to be cross-platform, but I have been having many issues operating on paths across both Windows and Linux. I understand the need to support \ in Windows for the foreseeable future, but I would at least like the default path character to be the same on both Windows and *nix, presumably by setting the default path delimiter to /. The current alternative is forcing users to normalize paths themselves with -replace "\\", "/" in their paths.
