Dear all, While it would be nice to have simpler identifiers for objects, it would be hard to make it work for multiprocessing, as objects in different interpreter would end up having the same repr. Shared objects (locks) might also have different serial numbers depending on how many objects have been created before it is communicated to the child process.
