I guess you mean parse_name?

It is a utf8-guaranteed "nice" string that can both be resolved to a
GFile (via g_file_parse_name) and put in e.g. a GtkEntry.

In practice, it is either a utf8-only absolute filename (if it starts
with a /), or an IRI (i.e. a URI that allows utf8-encoded unicode chars
instead of escaping them).
