Meador Inge added the comment:

I'm not to crazy about the trailing padding syntax either.  The behavior is 
documented all the way back to Python 2.6.  So, I would be hesitant to change 
it now.

If the new 'T{...}' struct syntax from issue3132 ever gets added, then maybe we 
could address this there?

FWIW, internal and trailing padding is implementation defined by the C 
standard.  That being said, most compilers I have worked with add the trailing 
padding.
