I would like to see this fixed.  When working in interactive session, I find 
myself adding [:] to struct_time objects because otherwise I cannot copy the 
result and paste it back to CLI session.

Actually, the bigger problem for me is that struct_time repr is too verbose 
with repeated tm_ prefixes distracting from the data I want to see.  Chances 
are I will continue adding [:] or [:6] when I inspect struct_time values even 
if this issue gets fixed.

Overall I am +0 on fixing this.
