[snip] it's good you mentioned that, because it reminded me of something i forgot. for instance, code objects will be serialized by value, so you could actually pickle functions and classes.

Are you intending to simplify code objects to the co_* attributes? co_code is a string of interpreter-specific bytecode, which would be pretty much useless outside of a copy() function.

Whatever the scheme, it will need to take into account cell objects and globals.
