I think you should.  As much as I am on your side here, I don't want
datetime classes to become special snowflakes in the Python type system.
So far all arguments in favor of retaining the type of datetime subclasses
in arithmetic operations apply equally to the other Python types.

BTW, Tim's original datetime.py prototype used type(self) in arithmetic
operations, but it was later changed in order to match C.
