Benoit used to talk about object persistence/serialization as a 3.0 
feature, but I don't know the status of that yet.  As Steven posted, you 
can always just write data types to a file directly, but to write them in a 
semi-human-readable format like pickle does would probably need its own 
component or module.

Parsing existing pickle data would probably not be that hard; I've done it 
in Perl on a number of occasions.
