This conversion is very special. For all other conversions 
{value:!c:format_spec} is equivalent to format(conv(value), format_spec), but 
not this conversion. It is also specific for f-strings, and is not particularly 
useful in format strings.

Would not be better to use more special syntax for it? For example "!=" or 
"!!"? Letters can be reserved for future "normal" conversions. It may be we 
even allowed to register new converters by name.
