* isimplemented : bool True if the parameter is implemented for use. Some platforms implement functions but can't support specific parameters (e.g. "mode" for os.mkdir). Passing in an unimplemented parameter may result in the parameter being ignored, or in NotImplementedError being raised. It is intended that all conditions where isimplemented may be False be thoroughly documented. I suppose that the value depends on the running platform? (For example, you may get a different value on Linux and Windows.)

Exactly. I expect it to vary mainly by platform.
