Yes, it is what I want. Current behavior is just an artefact of the implementation. I have doubts that any other implementation of printf-like formatting has such behavior.

Bytes formatting starves from the same issue.

>>> b'% %' % {}
b'%'

But there are differences:

>>> '%12%' % ()
'%'
>>> b'%12%' % ()
b'           %'
