Jason Orendorff has produced an excellent path module
which has an OOP approach to path, directory, and file
manipulation, as well as including some new convenience
functions. In my opinion, it allows much more Pythonic
path manipulation than the functions in os and os.path.
It is quite stable and includes unit tests. I and many
others have been using it for years.

I am requesting that it be added to the stdlib.

Guido was clear that an RFE is insufficient.  A PEP is
required if this is to advance.
