IMHO, either the translation is done once and gives identical output or it isn't worth doing at all. I disagree. I doubt even 0.001% of all format strings involve octal formatting. Is it really worth not providing a transition path if it can't cover this case?
It's also really easy to just write 0{:o} like my translator does.
