Ray Allen: Your patch doesn't touch the documentation. At least, you should mention (using .. versionchanged:: 3.3) that PyUnicode_FromFormat() does now support width and precision. It is important to specify the unit of the sizes: number of bytes or number of characters? Because many developer may refer to printf() which counts in bytes (especially for %s). PyUnicode_FromFormat() is more close to wprintf(), but I don't know if wprintf() uses bytes or characters for width and precision with the %s and %ls formats.

I plan to fix #10833 by replacing %.100s by %s is most (or all) error messages, and then commit your patch.
