Why not just use six.byte_format(fmt, *args)?
It works on both Python2 and Python3 and accepts the numerical format
specifiers, plus '%b' for inserting bytes and '%a' for converting text
to ascii.
Admittedly it doesn't exist yet,
but it could and it would save a lot of arguing :)
(Apologies to anyone who doesn't appreciate my mischievous sense of humour)
Cheers,
Mark.
