It might be nice to have time zone aware datetime objects with the right(TM) semantics, but those can and should not replace the naive objects we know and love.
Yes, they most certainly should. I will try to shut up now, but let me be clear on that the time zone support as it stands now is intentionally broken. Not naive, *broken*. All the usecases people have here for supporting "naive" objects would work just as well if they actually used naive objects, ie datetimes with no timezone info. If you explicitly do NOT want the datetimeobject to care about timezones, then you should not add a timezone to the object.
Lennart, are you saying you would leave naive objects alone, and "fix" the tz-aware objects only? -- ~Ethan~
