Hmm; this patch was never assigned to me, so I was unaware that anyone thought there was a problem with this. I specifically considered making changes like these when subclassing built-in types became possible, but decided against it since it didn't appear reasonable to assume that __repr__() hadn't been redefined. I'm sure it's possible to check, but to do so cleanly and efficiently seems like a huge change to the module for little value. I think the patch, as it stands, should be reverted. If another patch appears that addresses the issue of overridden __repr__() methods, it should be considered again. -1 for the patch as applied. -Fred -- Fred L.
