Hi,

I am using Django 1.6. I find myself using date_format semi-regularly
to convert datetime objects to strings in the DATE_FORMAT format. I
feel like I am repeating myself quite a bit and need to remember to do
this, else I receive the format YYYY-MM-DD, which, in my opinion, is
less pleasant to read.

I am considering a pull request that extends Python's datetime class
that overrides the __str__, __unicode__ methods to always return the
date formatted with the configured DATE_FORMAT. Then all uses
throughout the Django code could use this extended datetime instead of
Python's datetime.

Any thoughts on this? If I do the work, is this something that has a
chance of being accepted?

Cheers,
Jon
