It looks like this is exactly what I just suggested on your other thread, except that the original version at the top of the feature request suggested doing it automatically in __new__, and it's only farther down the comments that people suggested a fromisoformat classmethod instead.
So, as you might expect, I like this idea, but I like it as a classmethod rather than magically in __new__.
