Thanks Tim, your script gave me a good start.
It seems that pywin32 wraps pidls as list of strings, so getting the parent
is as simple as removing the last part:
>>> from win32com.shell.shell import *
>>> from win32com.shell.shellcon import *
>>> desktop = SHGetDesktopFolder()
>>> desktop.ParseDisplayName(0, None, r"c:\python26\lib\site-packages")

What I find strange if this:
>>> desktop.GetDisplayNameOf(pidl, SHGDN_FORPARSING)
u'C:\\Python26\\Lib\\site-packages'
>>> desktop.GetDisplayNameOf(pidl, SHGDN_NORMAL)
u'Python26'
>>>
I would have expected that the last command would have returned
'site-packages' instead of 'Python26'. But I can probably work around
it by doing a little parsing on the output of SHGDN_FORPARSING myself.
