AFAICS it is used to construct OutputForm from a list, like:

        (a : % = b : %) : %        == convert [eform '_=,     a, b]

Forms are silently converted to Rep, list formed, explictely
converted to Rep and comes back as %.  We probably could provide
apropriate 'convert' inside OutputForm based on pretend and
use it instead of 'convert' from SExpression.
