In the section "Explicit Conversion Flag" of PEP 3101 it says: Currently, two explicit conversion flags are recognized:
!r - convert the value to a string using repr(). !s - convert the value to a string using str(). -- It does not say what action is taken if an unrecognized explicit conversion flag is found. Later in the PEP the pseudocode for vformat() silently ignores the case of an unrecognized explicit conversion flag. This seems unPythonic to me but if this is the desired behavior please make it clear in the PEP.
