Tagged templates in JavaScript look interesting[1]
foo`...${bar} ...`
Where `foo` is an arbitrary method provided by the user.
But somehow I think general purpose string interpolation (PEP501)
is enough.
At least my use-case: Get something like this format_html() but with the
power of f-strings,
PEP501 would be enough.
What do you think?

Thomas
