Right-click in the Image View (not the Spline editor). Right-click, choose Path(#):Polyline, and then choose Convert to XY Path, which should be a little below the center of the menu.
I think you can only choose for Tracker paths to be XY by default. I don't recall that there's an option in the Prefs for other animated Point controls. I seem to remember that someone made a script at some point that would convert Trackers to and from XY paths. It shouldn't be too difficult to adapt it to change other kinds of tools, too. I have no idea where I saw that script, though.
