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.
