Matheus Vieira Portela added the comment:

Agreed that we should attain to ISO 8601, as it solves two questions that 
occurred in this thread:

- According to the specification, it is clear that a week must start on Monday 
and end on Sunday. Hence datetime.strptime('201726', '%Y%U') could be safely 
assigned to 2017/06/26 without ambiguity

- It also makes clear on what to do when a week overlaps two years.

IMHO there is no reason to not implement this feature and remove the 
requirement of using %U with the year and day of the week.
