Do backslashes also need to be backslashed then? If not, then what is
the translation of this:?
r'abc\{%s\}' % 'x'
I guess the only sensible translation if backslashes aren't backslashed
would be:
r'abc\\{{0}\\}'.format('x')
But the parsing of that format string seems fairly unintuitive to me.
If backslashes do need to be backslashed, then that fact needs to be
mentioned.
