Ping?
Can I clarify something to move this forward? It seems like a good
idea to me, but I don't have the history of Py_DeleteFileW -- maybe
somebody tried this already?
Thanks,

Hi all,
I posted this bug a while back, but haven't had any feedback on it, so I figured I'd open discussion here: http://bugs.python.org/issue18314
I want to have os.unlink recognize NTFS junction points (a prequel to proper symbolic links) and remove them transparently.
Currently, os.unlink on a path to a junction point will fail with a WindowsError and the error code 5, access denied.
Does this sound controversial, or would anybody be interested in reviewing a patch to this effect?
Thanks, - Kim
