Perhaps we could have a single format code plus an optional '#' for the "alternate form":
%T for short form %#T for fully qualified name OTOH, if %T and variants meant "type" but %t mean something entirely different, that would probably be confusing.
I think folks used to %-formatting are already used to un-related but similar codes (and related but dissimilar):
- %M for minute
- %m for month (or maybe I have that backwards)
- %H for 24-hour clock
- %I for 12-hour clock
- %w for weekday as decimal number
- %W for week number of the year
I always have to look it up. :(
