svcprop without an operand?  It would if you did not specify any
options.  (I expect that most scripts would do

        svcprop -1 -T <type> -p pg/prop

For arbitrary types?  For astrings?  I believe we already dump hex for
opaque values.  Otherwise, it doesn't seem like a common use case to me.
Do you have cases in mind?
