> LF or CR cannot be part of a URI

But they can be part of a filename, at least on POSIX systems. Are you 
proposing that only the Windows version of os.path.join strip LF/CR? 

I don't think that it up to the join function to validate the path, and 
certainly not to modify the substrings. Would you expect it to complain about 
this? os.path.join('/', 'AUX')? (AUX is a reserved name and forbidden for file 
names under Windows.)

I don't think it is up to join to validate that the path generated is legal, so 
I don't think this is a bug in join.
