Typing-wise, %#s as a synonym for %b is probably going to be easier (less shell escaping needed). Is there any interest in a patch to coreutils or bash that would add such a synonym, to make it easier to leave that functionality in place for POSIX Issue 9 even when %b is repurposed to align with C2x?
Sounds good to me for coreutils.
