On a related note, I was trying to do this, more or less, this morning, and I
thought I might try to explore the structure of the grid by displaying it with
BEAUTIFY. But of course (I guess of course) that gives me the presentation of
the form/table itself, not a breakdown of its structure.
I wonder if it wouldn't be straightforward to have a version of BEAUTIFY
(arguments? alternative version called DUMP?) that would suppress this behavior
and give us a dump of the object down to lower-level structures: dicts, lists,
etc? Or is there already some better way to explore the structure of a FORM or
SQLTABLE or whatever?
