The escape/unescape functions (why "delimit"?) you mentioned could be useful, but only as helpers for other APIs (such as the OS API). I think, convenience.hpp is the right place for them.
Are these functions specific to Boost.Filesystem? A mechanism for quoting strings (whether it is double-quoting, back-slashing, or URL-style) would seem to be generally useful, and not just specific to the filesystem library.
