[Python-ideas] Draft PEP on string interpolation

[Mike Miller]

I'm guessing there's not much else we can do here but use another string prefix. 
  To stay consistent, I'd expect a slight modification to:

     Nt'Hello {name}.'

However, if we were determined to reduce the number of prefixes, an alternative 
might be to put a flag inside the string.  My first thought is of django/jinja 
templating comments:

     t'{# deferred=1 #}Hello {name}.'

How does that sound?
