 @defun path-append strings ...
 Joins all strings into a path, squeezing duplicated delimiters, but
 ensuring that all delimiters that are needed are there.
+
+Note that delimiters embedded inside the string, which aren't first or
+last in a substring (or are the only thing in a string) are
+kept. Meaning that
+@example
+(path-append "/" "hello") ⇒ "/hello"
+(path-append "/usr/local/bin" "cmd") ⇒ "/usr/local/bin/cmd"
+@end example
