Reducing to numeric votes:

p[q]: -1 (confusing w.r.t to indexing/slicing, not convinced it is needed)
p + q : -1 (confusing w.r.t to strings, not convinced it is needed)
p / q : -0 (not convinced it is needed)
p.join(q): -0 (confusing w.r.t strings)
p.joinpath(q): +1 (avoids confusion, path.py precedent, need a method
API anyway)

Cheers,
Nick.
