R. David Murray <rdmur...@bitdance.com> added the comment:

Oh, and when you say there is nothing in the documentation about the 's' case 
for arbitrary objects, it is made clear in various places that every object has 
an str, which defaults to its repr if it has no specific __str__.  Combine that 
with the description of what happens when you use a fixed field length for 's', 
and you get the results you see.  There should be nothing surprising about this 
to anyone who has read the tutorial, I think.  (But specific suggestions for 
improving the docs are always welcome.)
