I have a class called Path for which there are defined about 10 methods, in a dedicated module Path.py. Recently I had a need to write 5 more methods for Path, however these new methods are quite obscure and technical and 90% of the time they are irrelevant.
Where would be a good place to put them so their context is clear? Of course I can just put them with the class definition, but I don't like that because I like to keep the important things separate from the obscure things.
Currently I have these methods as functions that are defined in a separate module, just to keep things separate, but it would be better to have them as bound methods. (Currently they take the Path instance as an explicit parameter.) 
Does anyone have a suggestion?
If you're keen to put those methods in a different source file at any cost, AND keen to have them at methods at any cost, you can achieve both goals by using the different source file to define a mixin class and having your Path class import that method and multiply-inherit from that mixin. So, technically, it's quite feasible.
However, I would not recommend this course of action: it's worth using "the big guns" (such as multiple inheritance) only to serve important goals (such as reuse and removing repetition), and separating methods out in this way is not really a particularly crucial goal.
If those "obscure methods" played no role you would not be implementing them, so they must have SOME importance, after all; so I'd just clarify in docstrings and comments what they're for, maybe explicitly mention that they're rarely needed, and leave it at that.
