OBSE Wish: String Arguments
In v0017 you will be able to pass a string in any place that you would usually pass a string literal by using, for example, this:
string_var str Begin GameMode set str to sv_Construct "blah blah" SetMagicEffectName $str FRDG End
That should fulfill your wish (and is generally easier in practice than actually having a format string in there.

OBSE Wishes: ToString and ToRef, File Editing
I'd point out that the vast majority of object types (read: anything other than Cells and Quests) do not have the EditorID available at run-time; Oblivion does not load or store them. So that function would see astonishingly little practical purpose. Nonetheless, if still desired, I suggest bringing it up in the OBSE thread on the forums.
Further, exactly how is the limitation of an OBSE expr for ToString actually limiting you? An OBSE expr can have anything you like in it... More explanation of that would be good.
As for reading from or writing to a file, I believe for security reasons the OBSE team has decided not to do this, even though it would be rather trivial to add (in fact, Timeslip donated functions that do this a long time ago, that have simply never been exposed to script).
If you have any questions or comments on any of these, feel free to respond either here or on my Talk page in an appropriate header. Thanks.
