Would you support adding UNC support to os.path on Windows?

Sorry, I assumed this was common knowledge: os.path is implemented by
different modules depending on what operating system you're using. On
Windows it uses "ntpath", on OS2 it may use "os2emxpath" or "ntpath"
depending, and on all other platforms it uses "posixpath". My patch
adds UNC path support to "ntpath"; it does not modify the other "path"
implementations.
And sorry for the late reply,
