Here is my minimalist contribution of a Dumper. It meets my needs. It might well be enhanced with prettyprinting logic, etc. but even as it stands it would have been a big help in solving my previous problem. I kind of like the simplicity of it.
Basically it dumps nulls as "null" Maps as comma-delimited key=value pairs inside of {} (with recursion as needed) Collections as comma delimited strings inside of () (with recursion as needed) Object[]s as comma-delimited strings inside of [] (with recursion as needed) all others as per their toString() method.

If anyone implements something like a static class "Dumper" (or whatever it's called), then I'll be glad to add it to the util package.
