Ugh, display(), ugh. Sorry, but there is no limit to the amount of scorn and vitriol I could pour on that sad excuse of a routine and it's illegitimate sibling, text_format(), pttth.

Agreed. I took one look at the documentation for display() and then immediately ignored it. No. Thank. You.

I don't really like Python's format() either. I guess .NET's String.Format() is alright.

Unfortunately this is a hard problem to solve, and I think we dropped the ball on that one.
