I don't think that should be done by default. The
string passed to int often comes from user input,
and typical users aren't familiar with bases other
than 10, so it's more likely to be a typo if the
string contains non-digits.
Maybe there should be an option for it, though,
such as
x = int("0x500", anybase = True)
or perhaps a different function altogether.
