Standardize query parameter formatter with PEP249 conventions

[LeonLuttenberger]

Is your idea related to a problem? Please describe.
The recently implemented parameter formatter does not follow PEP 249 guidance.

Describe the solution you'd like
Instead of parameters being in the :name; format, we should use the Python's standard PyFormat: %(name)s.

P.S. Please do not attach files as it's considered a security risk. Add code snippets directly in the message body as much as possible.

We had #1535 with @cnfait for that but the PEP convention is :name, no? Whereas you seem to think it should be @LeonLuttenberger ?

My bad, I didn't see that PR.
