Eric V. Smith <e...@trueblade.com> added the comment:

Serhiy's point about how special this is is very valid. It's so special that I 
can't figure out where to document it. f-strings are really only documented in 
Doc/reference/lexical_analysis.rst, and !d details, especially the format/repr 
distinction, seems like too much information for that document. But I could be 
wrong about that.

And since this feature can't be used in str.format(), it can't be documented in 
Doc/library/string.rst. In fact, it should contain a note about !d not applying.

Rather than make the documentation worse, I think I'll just open a separate 
issue for it when I commit this. Maybe someone else will have some ideas.
