[Python-ideas] intuitive timedeltas like in go

[Sven R. Kunze]

Hi,

timedelta handling always felt cumbersome to me:

from datetime import timedelta

short_period = timedelta(seconds=10)
long_period = timedelta(hours=4, seconds=37)

Today, I came across this one https://github.com/lxc/lxd/pull/1471/files 
and I found the creation of a 10 seconds timeout extremely intuitive. 
Would this represent a valuable addition to Python?

from datetime import second, hour

short period = 10*second
long_period = 4*hour + 37*second

Best,
Sven
