Matthew Barnett <pyt...@mrabarnett.plus.com> added the comment:
Your original:
"{0[-1]}".format('fox')
is a worse gotcha than:
"{-1}".format('fox')
because you're much less likely to want to do the latter.
It's one of those things that it would be nice to have fixed, or we could just
add a warning to the documentation that it _might_ be fixed in the future, so
people shouldn't rely on the current behaviour. :-)
