No, we're long past this point. We've dropped 'convert ... using' entirely.

The question is whether re-adding it should be a TODO.

One of the reasons we dropped it was that the spec didn't seem to make sense. So if there's a proposal, first it would have to wait until we can get sane multi-locale support and then it would have to explain how it actually does what the spec says.

I don't think there's a definite TODO in that.

We don't seem to have had a single squawk since we dropped it, so I suspect it will be little mourned.

cheers
