We discussed this at last week’s PSC meeting:

• We like the idea of the sprintf capability, and a "width" function analogous to length.
• It needs more thought to write a thorough RFC which covers the various points, and potential gotchas, and that needs someone who groks all the issues / relevant internals, and has both the time and the inclination.

In the meantime we’ve marked this as Parked.
