FWIW, I would not mind seeing sleep() as a timedelta instance method:
timedelta(seconds=42).sleep()

Some would suggest that introducing a new protocol like - timedelta(seconds=42).__seconds__ defining an ABC - class SecondLike(abc.ABC): - @abc.abstractmethod - def __seconds__(self): - raise NotImplementedError defining an extraction function - def os.seconds... and let all stdlib functions which accepts integer/float seconds also accept SecondLike objects as the solution to the problem. I have to admit that I like your idea more. Sven
See also the PEP 410 which is somehow related: http://legacy.python.org/dev/peps/pep-0410/ (and maybe also the PEP 418) Victor
