Doesn't the appropriate conversion depend on the contract between the
sender and receiver (i.e. an array of type 'c' may either be converted
as list(arr) or arr.tostring() depending on the app)?  Is the goal to
save writing explicit conversions by presuming that most iterables
aspire to be lists for transport purposes?
