In the docs for 2.x about the formatting syntax:

    https://docs.python.org/2/library/string.html#format-string-syntax

it says

    "Two conversion flags are currently supported: '!s' which calls str() on the value, and '!r' which calls repr()."

but for unicode formatters, '!s' calls unicode() instead.

See http://stackoverflow.com/questions/23773816/why-python-str-format-doesnt-call-str for the question that found this.
