Is this fixing an actual bug that you have encountered? I'm mostly asking because I think this actually works as inteded: we only try to decode the path using the specified encoding in case where it is not representable as ASCII. If it contained e.g. Unicode characters, then this statement here would throw and we end up decoding in the except branch. Otherwise, we know that the path only contains ASCII characters and thus we don't have to change it in the first place.

Whether that complexity is sensible might be a different question. But it at least shouldn't result in any user visible bug, no?
