Description
@mdboom suggested in #1296 that once `to_string` is merged for coordinate objects, we should implement `__format__`. I'm tagging this as 0.4.0, but if some adventurous soul does this very soon it could make 0.3.0.

Research direction
Locate the coordinate object implementation and review the to_string work referenced in #1296 before investigating existing string-formatting behavior. Check the coordinate-related tests and use them to define the expected __format__ behavior; done means coordinate objects support the requested formatting without regressing existing string output.
