R. David Murray added the comment: It certainly seems that collections should be consistent about this. The question of builtin types is a different issue, and I agree that it is probably way more trouble than it is worth to change them, especially since, for example, repr(str) is often used just to get the quote marks in contexts where you *don't* want the subclass name.
