[issue33561] Add .tostring() method to xml.etree.ElementTree.Element

[Stefan Behnel]

Sorry, but you are proposing an API extension here that provides no benefits but duplicates existing functionality in a less versatile place. This is not going to happen.

The second proposal (str(xml)) is actually not very helpful as it does not allow any kind of configuration, so it breaks backwards compatibility without benefit. Also not going to happen.
