New submission from nestor <nestornis...@gmail.com>:

Many programs written for Python 2.x use simple string interpolation to create 
byte strings with specific layout, this is gone in 3.x. Is it possible to 
support the format method but maybe only supporting field names like '{}' 
'{1}{2}' '{name}' and not conversion and formatting for the bytes type?

Examples:

and the "get_current_url" function at this post:
