I see no reason why this can't be handled by programming in Lisp
rather than adding new syntax to FORMAT.

Guy: I'm still pissed at you, even after more than ten years, for
adding programming language features to FORMAT after we had all
agreed not to do that.  OK, I admit I'm still speaking to you, and
I admit that I use the features myself.  But I still think they
are wrong.
