Andreas, the implementation I posted uses format under the hood, so I'm not 
sure what you meant to say :/ The Python RFC that introduced this change has a 
discussion of pros and cons of the two approaches (including values to be 
formatted inside the string or not) 

In any case, Emacs' format is a function, not a macro: format strings are 
parsed at runtime, AFAICT.
