You¹ll get more mileage out of that in Radar (they don¹t "officially² do
Apple-isms), and you might want to add to your bug that the
format-recognizer NS_FORMAT_FUNCTION (see NSString.h) should be extended
for predicate formats or a new one, NS_PREDICATE_FORMAT_FUNCTION, should
be added for such extensions, and that it should be applied to the
appropriate methods in NSPredicate.h.
