writefln("%(%s-%)", ["a", "b", "c"]) doesn't print the

writefln("%s", "a string") prints the string without any
quotes.
How do I get the desired behaviour using just the format
string?
writefln("%-(%s-%)", ["a", "b", "c"])

What I find surprising is that "%-(ch%)" without %s inside also
works, although ch is prepended to each string and not a
separator (which makes sense, but still). This does not seem to
be mentioned in the documentation, neither in Ali's book. Is
this a bug?
