-1 explanation: I don't think %% is clear enough, the only sensible syntax choice (//) is unavailable to us, and I think the utility of having it baked into the language as an operator is pretty minimal regardless (I coded a lot of Python for scientific research in a previous job, and I don't think I ever used //, and you'd think that's the place where you'd use it).
+1 on the function, though — quick searches on Ohloh and Github suggest that there are a grand total of three open source projects that implement a global intdiv() function. Seems safe enough.
