I thing so people who knows sprintf function could be confused. It's
ok for any text types, but for datetime, numeric types and others?
More natural is using complete sprintf's tags, but it is far to
friendly using. So it is reason why I am against to sprintf
implementation in postgres, and I am for implementation some different
function, that just simplify formatting.
format function should be nice with new raise statement syntax.
