R. David Murray <rdmur...@bitdance.com> added the comment:

The format support is written specifically so that it is extensible.  You can 
write your own string subclass that extends the formatting mini-language with 
whatever features you find useful.  There are too many variations on what might 
be useful with regards to case transformations for this to be a sensible 
addition to the language itself.  Much better that an application create 
use-case tailored facilities.

(Note, by the way, that new features can only go in to 3.3 at this point.)
