The origin of the print-object is Java's ToString (in the original code). I
thought it's more useful this way, and I used it for debugging purposes,
without having a greater goal in mind. Is there a good reason to make something
more powerful out of it? (If unsure, print-unreadable-object might be enough
for debugging purposes.)
