The trailing zeros thing is heavily bound up with issue 5858, of course; I think we need a decision on that, one way or the other. One problem is that I'm only proposing the issue 5858 change for py3k, not trunk.

I don't have a problem with trunk's complex.format not agreeing with trunk's complex.str. If it's a big deal, we can just take complex.format completely out of trunk with a #define. In any event, there's lots of time before 2.7 and not so much before 3.1, so let's concentrate on trunk. Which is what I should have done with starting this issue (but forward porting is easier for me that back porting).
