Oh, and in 8!:2, I would really appreciate a formatting option allowed me to 
specify "minimum width plus 1" for the width of each
number, so that the 8!:2 format of a vector of numbers separated numbers with 
spaces.  As in:

           8!:2 ] 9.9 10 1 0 78
        9.9101078
           '_' 8!:2 ] 9.9 10 1 0 78
         9.9 10 1 0 78
        
           '0.3' 8!:2 ] 9.9 10 1 0 78
         9.90010.000 1.000 0.00078.000
           '_.3' 8!:2 ] 9.9 10 1 0 78
         9.900 10.000 1.000 0.000 78.000

I've wanted such a thing on numerous occasions, and I always have to hand-roll 
a solution.
