Mmm.  Interesting.  :)

I think it would be fine to add timedelta % timedelta in this patch, and then open another feature request for timedelta % int and friends as you suggest.  I don't think divmod(timedelta, timedelta) should go in if timedelta % timedelta doesn't also go in.

Perhaps;  I haven't seen much opposition to these ideas anyway---I think the only reason they haven't been implemented yet is lack of round-tuits.

I'd be +1 on accepting the current patch if timedelta % timedelta were added to it.
