Kamil Kisiel <kisi...@users.sourceforge.net> added the comment:

While I agree this functionality isn't strictly necessary I think it makes 
sense from a semantic point of view. I ran in to this issue today while writing 
some code and I simply expected the negative syntax to work, given that the 
format string syntax otherwise very closely resembles standard array and 
attribute access.

It would be nice to see this make it in eventually for consistency's sake.
