from os import path2 as path

The os.path library replacement with simple API.

>>> from os import path2 as path

>>> path('/var/log')
/var/log

>>> path('/var', 'log')
/var/log

>>> path('/home/you/file').user
'you'

>>> [(element.user, element.group, element.mod) for element in path('.')]
[('user', 'user', '0664'),
 ('user', 'user', '0664'),
 ('user', 'user', '0664'),
 ('user', 'user', '0664'),
 ('user', 'user', '0664'),
 ('user', 'user', '0664'),
 ('user', 'user', '0664'),
 ('user', 'user', '0775'),
 ('user', 'user', '0664')]

Status

Library seems to be pretty stable. Feel free to use it as you want. But I think this no the final version of API.
