datetime.timedelta have 'days', 'seconds' and 'microseconds'
attributes.  You could write your own formatter using the seconds
attribute.

e.g.:

def formatTD(td):
  hours = td.seconds // 3600
  minutes = (td.seconds % 3600) // 60
  seconds = td.seconds % 60
  return '%s:%s:%s' % (hours, minutes, seconds)

HTH!
