Must they always though? That is also how the nsv_* commands worked,
but I think Zoran's tsv_* commands do special work to retain the
internal rep of many objects across tsv_set and tsv_get.
Tcl objects may reference other objects. Think of a list. So it's
not enough to copy an object's internal rep, you need to follow the
references and do a deep-copy. That's real ugly because then you need
to know the details of each object's internal rep.
What happens when you come accross an object you don't know about?
Punt, I guess: stringify it.
It may or may not be worth while adding per-interp caches to the cache
code, but I'm pretty sure ADP is the way to go for Tcl page caching.
