Actually, a better link is:
https://mail.python.org/pipermail/python-ideas/2015-July/034729.html
where I discuss the pros and cons of str.format-like expressions, versus
full expressions. Plus, Guido's response.

I hope to have the first draft of a PEP ready in the next few days. I'll
also look at putting my implementation online somewhere.

Eric.
