[Zope-dev] improving str(REQUEST)

[Andreas Jung]

Feel free to extend the HTML representation for REQUEST
using __str__ or the ascii represenation using text(). But for
debugging purposes a collapsable tree is more unhandy than usable
because clicking in a large tree takes to much time to find the
informations you are looking for.
