Well, you can't sell me much enthusiasm for choosing repr/str when
neither one is worth a damn for functions.

If we have

def f() : return 1

then it seems that repr(f) ought to be

'def f() : return 1'

and not

'<function f at ....>'

which, no matter how many times you type it in is not going to get
you your f back.
