How about %pos$format, used in C-printf()? It might be
only in Linux's libc.

printf("<%2$s> <%1$d>\n", 123, "abc");
=> <abc> <123>
http://linux.die.net/man/3/printf

Looks good designed.  I have a couple of comments and questions:

* There is no examples for %l. What's the difference from %v and %s?
  If it always quotes, how does it work? Like as quote_literal()
  or quote_nullable()?

* %v quotes text values (and maybe all non-numeric values) with
  single quotes, but doesn't numeric values. How do we determine
  the difference? By type oid?

* %v also doesn't quote boolean values, but t and f are not valid.
  You should use true and false (or 't' and 'f') for the cases.
  (So, your "INSERT INTO" example is broken.)
