I've written a patch for Python 3.1 that changes os.path so it handles
UNC paths on Windows. You can read about it at the Python bug tracker:

I'd like to gauge community interest in the patch. After all, it's has
been declined before; I submitted a similar patch for 1.5.2 way back in
1999. (You can read the details of that on the tracker page too.)
You should bring this up on python-dev.
In Larry's defense, I suggested he bring it here first to try and find
some common noise from the people with the most experience actually
using these functions - ie, those people here. My hope was that some
vague consensus here would offer more ammunition when finally taking it
to python-dev for consideration (or kill it without taking it there -
but it's looking good :)
Cheers,
Mark
