New submission from Barney Gale <barney.gale at gmail.com>:
The implementations of `Path.owner()` and `Path.group()` directly import and use the `pwd` and `grp` modules. Given these modules provide information about the *local* system, I believe these implementations should instead live in `pathlib._NormalAccessor` for consistency with other methods that do "impure" things.
