I always figured the use case for fromtimestamp(stamp, tz) 
was indeed so the user had a dead-easy way to attach 
their own local time tzinfo class to a timestamp, and that's 
all.  I would find the behavior you describe counterintuitive 
instead:  if I want a conversion, I'd rather ask for one 
explicitly (via astimezone()).
