Comment (by aaugustin):
Well, the requirements are pretty clear to me: one must be able to disable
selectively the time zone code in model and form DateTimeFields.
I've encountered this problem myself with the model layer: I had to
interact with a third party database whose schema I couldn't control, and
the data was in local time. Your use case is also interesting: ironically,
time zone support makes it slightly more difficult!
Since I implemented time zone support in Django, I feel qualified to make
a decision -- not because this is my territory or anything, just because I
know how I designed it.
If I think it can work, I'll upload a patch for review.
