Also, as a feedback, I found it a bit odd that there can't be any space nor

FWIW, that is the case for normal format strings, as well:
print("{!r\n}".format(12))
Traceback (most recent call last):
File "<stdin>", line 1, in <module>
ValueError: expected ':' after conversion specifier
I guess the behaviour is simply inherited from there.
Right. That and the fact that whitespace is significant inside the
format specifier portion:
>>> '{:%H:%M:%S\n}'.format(datetime.datetime.now())
'17:14:10\n'
I don't think it's worth changing this to allow whitespace after the
optional one-character conversion flag.
