So you're proposing to include these how? As standalone functions in pathlib? Strong -1 on that. I thought the intention here was to add methods to path objects (which I still have reservations about). But I'm definitely against adding standalone functions to pathlib - I see pathlib as where Path objects are defined, not as "the place where all path-related and other file operations should live").
