Because that is what the OS shell itself uses internally for everything, so
it is more efficient to use ITEMIDLISTs when dealing with the OS shell.
ITEMIDLISTs are generic, they don't care about Unicode vs. Ansi (since they
are not themselves strings), and they can represent things that filenames
alone cannot (virtual items in particular).
