Why have both %s and ? (both positional?)  If there is to only be positional, 
what purpose is served by having two choices for the format ?

Also is it accurate that named parameters, support for dictionaries passed to 
execute(), will be dropped ?   This leads things back in the "more difficult to 
use" direction IMHO.
