[New-bugs-announce] [issue10633] string.format() Unexpected output with numeric '#' prefix and 0 width

New submission from Alex Leone <acleone at gmail.com>:
When using the '#' to prefix a numeric argument in format() with a '0x' or others, the 0-width padding takes into account the '0x' characters. This is unexpected - the 0-width should NOT take into account the prefix.
Current Behavior:
> "{0:#02x}".format(10)
'0xa'
Expected Output:
> "{0:#02x}".format(10)
'0x0a'
(note that the '0a' is two characters long, as it should be)
