New submission from Mateusz Kurek <master.mate...@gmail.com>: Since Python 3.3, some os module functions, like os.stat (https://docs.python.org/3/library/os.html#os.stat), support passing file descriptor instead of a path. os.path functions, on the other hand (like os.path.exists - https://docs.python.org/3/library/os.path.html#os.path.exists - or os.path.samefile - https://docs.python.org/3/library/os.path.html#os.path.samefile) mention using os.stat underneath, but according to documentation, does not support passing file descriptor instead of a path (at least it's not mentioned in the docs that this feature is supported). Is this intentional (os.path functions should not take file descriptor params) or this feature is officialy supported, but it's ommited in the docs?
