Now that Starlark has gained support for floating point, it makes sense to revisit the decision to not allow width or precision specifiers for % string interpolation formats.
This would be particularly useful for the java implementation of Starlark, where java.util.Formatter's default precision is 6 - meaning "%f" % 2" is currently "2.000000" instead of "2.0".
