Once that's clear a name can be chosen. Possibly the
feature already exists in the language, via a :AROUND method
on PRINT-OBJECT with no specialized parameters, depending on whether
what that does is precisely what you wanted.
Does it do what I want (I'm not yet a CLOS theologian)?
Yes.
I think this means we can withdraw the PRINT-PRETTY-HOOK proposal, since
Common Lisp as amended by CLOS already will do what you want.
OK, consider it withdrawn UNLESS CLOS is later voted optional (which I
will not support).
