[issue46733] pathlib.Path methods can raise NotImplementedError

[Alex Waygood]

Alex Waygood <Alex.Waygood at Gmail.com> added the comment:

I suppose it might also be worth considering moving `owner()` and `group()` to PosixPath. In practice, these unconditionally raise NotImplementedError on Windows, since the pwd and grp modules are not available on Windows. So, in an ideal world, they probably wouldn't exist on the common base class.

Again, though, that needs to be weighed against backwards-compatibility considerations.
