I think it would be a nice feature, and I can see the conflict. OT1H you want to keep os.chown() a thin wrapper, but OTOH you'd rather not have to add a new, arguably more difficult to discover, function. Given those two choices, I still think I'd come down on adding a new function and shutil.chown() seems an appropriate place for it.
Right. Please add a mention of shutil.chown() to the os.chown() docs, though.
Cheers,
