If someone wants to support things like  [1 + 1] and [ :x | x + 1], then
you could use the decompiler and check the results for any free
variables.  If there are no free variables, then you should be able to
safely save the block as a string.

Along similar lines, it would be nice to have a better printString for
blocks, too.  :)
