Amaury Forgeot d'Arc <amaur...@gmail.com> added the comment:

Functions of the os module that expose POSIX functions should have the
same interface as the system function; and they should not call other
system function.
Here, 'None' is accepted for the second argument only because the POSIX
utime() function accepts a NULL pointer.

Your need is certainly valid; but such a behavior does not belong to the
os module, which has to remain low-level.
