How about %pos$format, used in C-printf()? It might be
only in Linux's libc.
printf("<%2$s> <%1$d>\n", 123, "abc");
=> <abc> <123>

Looks good designed. I have a couple of comments and questions:
* There is no examples for %l. What's the difference from %v and %s? If it always quotes, how does it work? Like as
quote_literal()or quote_nullable()?
* %v quotes text values (and maybe all non-numeric values) with single quotes, but doesn't numeric values. How do we
determinethe difference? By type oid?
* %v also doesn't quote boolean values, but t and f are not valid. You should use true and false (or 't' and 'f') for
thecases. (So, your "INSERT INTO" example is broken.)
