I think your vote carries the motion, then, Shane!  Thank you.  I know Guido
is in favor of it (has been pushing for it, in fact), and that changing the
Python implementation only took a few hours was a Good Sign.  I've since
played with the new implementation as a user, and found it more pleasant to
use (e.g., fewer pointless choices to make, and  "promoting" what was a
datetime to what was a datetimetz has become trivial instead of an
irritating puzzle).
