New submission from Muhammad Hallaj Subery:

I think the default behavior of os.path.join() when None is passed as the first 
argument should be to translate it to '' by default.

>>> import os
>>> os.path.join(None, 'somewhere')
'somewhere'

vs the current

>>> import os
>>> os.path.join(None, 'somewhere')
Traceback (most recent call last):
  File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
  File "/usr/lib/python2.7/posixpath.py", line 68, in join
    elif path == '' or path.endswith('/'):
AttributeError: 'NoneType' object has no attribute 'endswith'
