Jason R. Coombs <jar...@jaraco.com> added the comment:

The documentation changes I suggested make no mention to Windows pathing
quirks. They instead clarify two aspects:

1) cross-platform behavior (how the path is interpreted) and
2) platform-specific implementation of relpath (what Python exceptions
to expect in exceptional conditions).

These two changes would have made it clear to me from the beginning that
relpath is not what I was searching for when I wanted to find a path
from one path to another. I'm just trying to help those who come after
me to not run into the same situation.
