You realize that what you are asking, is for Python to fix an inherently
platform-specific behaviour issue which no other language or system has
likely ever fixed? Not asking much, are you? ;-)
Still, it wouldn't be hard to write a little module designed to
encapsulate the differences between platforms, and use the appropriate
platform-specific code to do The Right Thing. I suspect few people feel
the need.
