This is nice when your datetime objects are freshly created. It is not 
so nice when some of them already exist e.g. in a database (using an ORM 
layer). Mixing naive and aware datetimes is currently a catastrophe, 
since even basic operations such as equality comparison fail with a 
TypeError (it must be pretty much the only type in the stdlib with such 
poisonous behaviour).

Antoine.
