I've always known it as the former; a perusal of the Python repository would probably indicate when it became exposed in the os module itself. Support for extension separators (extsep and splitext) has always been somewhat lacklustre in the os(.path) module, perhaps due to "complicated" filename syntax from operating systems like VMS, but it'd be good to improve this support in future, I think.
