Hmm, I think I'd be fine with something along the lines of: `class|struct|union 
'blah' is too complex to dump` and leave "too complex" vague (because this is a 
debugging interface and it involves some quite questionably-sized objects, I 
think it's fine for the QoI bar to be lower for this diagnostic). WDYT?
