It was *much* less of an issue than all the magic date format parsing that
mxDT supports.  That's actually something that I think is a more serious
deficiency, since .strptime() is pretty limited (e.g. how would you parse ISO
8601 dates both with and without the 'T'?).  A Python 3 compatible time format
parser would make for a very nice separate library (PyPI) and/or addition to
the stdlib (eventually).

FWIW, here's the changeset.
