It's the article that's important here. Putting "appending a %s to a
%s" may be safe in this case because no object type begins with a
vowel (and we would need to turn "a" to "an"). But it raises a
question: does any other language have different forms of article
depending on the main noun?
But this is for the sake of discussion. The new patch (with your
suggestion) does not have this problem any more.
