I am very much for this patch. Of course I am biased by my stackless
history and would be very happy to get most pickling into Python,
where it belongs.

To improve the patch a bit, I propose to put the hidden types into
some module. I agree with Kristjan that the types module would
be a good place to bootstrap the hidden iterable types.

I even would like to propose a PEP:
Whenever stuff is turned into C, which was picklable when implemented
in Python, or something new is implemented that makes sense to
pickle, a pickle implementation should always be provided.
