I'm going to offer one more argument here, then close the ticket.
(Tim already told you the behavior wasn't going to change.)
str() is a convenience function intended to give conveniently
human-readable output.  It's not intended to be a one-size-fits-
all routine.  Humans are used to not seeing fractions of a second
in times when there are none.  In those situations where you
unambiguously need microseconds displayed, use something like
this:

    >>> str(dt.replace(microsecond=0)) + ".%06d" % dt.microsecond
    '2007-09-01 22:30:36.000032'
    >>> dt.strftime("%H:%M:%S") + ".%06d" % dt.microsecond
    '22:30:36.000032'
