Because it is representing files using path strings, the abstraction  
provided by Cocoa for this (see [1]).

I will use more Carbon APIs in 2.0. As for asking for password: when  
you try to save something, and it fails, TM can think it happened  
because you do not have the proper privileges, and so it will ask you  
for them, and will then retry with these -- if you know it is asking,  
because the path is gone, cancel the request, and TM will abort  
saving it.
