leading spaces and negative year numbers in DateTime>>printOn:?

It's annoying to me that the DateTime printOn: has a leading space for 
positive year numbers.

Would anybody be bothered much if we were to make printOn: not start with a 
space for positive year numbers?

Yes, this would make the width of the string printed for negative year numbers 
one wider.

Which doesn't bother me at all (we could provide the existing behavior as 
#printWithLeadingSignOrSpaceOn: if we wanted to).
