I can't reproduce this - I added

  f1.addStep(FileUpload(slavesrc="README.txt",
masterdest="/tmp/nosuchdir/main.cp"))

and it created /tmp/nosuchdir for me successfully.  Changing to

  f1.addStep(FileUpload(slavesrc="README.txt",
masterdest="/usr/nosuchdir/main.cp"))

resulted in an exception (purple), which isn't ideal, but is certainly
not success (green).

I do see this, and will fix it up.

Thanks for the reports!
