Adding votes to a tracker issue without a working patch will not move
it any further. There are several committers besides me in the nosy
list including the original author of the datetime module. If it was
such a universally desired feature as Ka-Ping makes it sound, it would
be committed long before I became the maintainer of the datetime
module.

I don't think any committer has a power to *block* a patch. I
certainly don't. If Ka-Ping wants to add a feature over my
objections, it is well within his power to do so. (Note that I
objected to timedelta.total_seconds(), but it was added nevertheless.)
It would be best, however to bring this to python-dev or python-ideas
first.
