I didn't think about this at the time. I have the feeling (not really
well thought yet) that "recursive formatting" will complicate
everything too much, that doing str() (as {} defaults to) on every
object would fulfill most of the basic cases and keep this simple.

Ideally, it will handle *any* iterable.
Thanks!
