Aren't a lot of the string formatting operations superfluous as %s does the work that type-specific operations (%i, etc) do? However, I guess I don't see how to merge the other formatting operations with $-string substitution. Could the other formatting operations be added to the str() function as an additional argument? Although I don't particularly like that idea, and I think I remember someone else making that suggestion and it not panning out very well.
