I don't buy this one. The feature would be usefull for simple objects
only, and I prefer to stay away from instVarAt: 1 put: (...) and
infinite loop on cyclic object graphs as proposed by current
implementation of storeString for any other Object.
A traditional inspector window does a better job.

Maybe we should better close this subject :)
