Python currently supports 'S % X', where S is a strinng, and X is one of:
* a sequence
* a map
* treated as (X,)
But I have some questions about this for python 3000.
1. Shouldn't there be a format method, like S.format(), or S.fmt()?
2. What about using __call__ instead of / in addition to __rmod__?
* "time: %s"(time.ctime()) == "time: %s" % time.ctime()
* "%(a)s %(b)s"(a=1, b=2) == "%(a)s %(b)s" % {'a'=1, 'b'=2}
