At present the %q formatting verb ignores width and precision modifiers. It ought to
support them (Russ Cox agrees).

I also think it would be nice if Go would at least complain if a format modifier is used
that isn't valid for the given verb rather than silently ignore it.

Comment 1:

Those are two unrelated points.
%q should honor width and precision.
Please move the other point into a separate issue if you wish to pursue it.
