We could deprecate DateTime now to warn people about that. But then their product would only either work with Zope <2.12 or with Zope >2.12 (depending on whether it still expects the DateTime API or the datetime.datetime API); it would not with both versions. That's a harsh upgrade plan and it would probably take ages before people would adopt Zope 2.12.
I agree, official deprecation and warnings should only happen when we have a real backwards compatibility and transition-path. Which would include what you call a "frankendatetime". :-)
