I propose changing the complex str and repr to behave like the float version.  That is, repr(4. + 10.j) should be "(4.0 + 10.0j)" rather than "(4+10j)". I'm +0.5 on this. I'd probably be +1 if I were a big complex user. Also, I'm not sure about the spaces around the sign. If we do want the spaces there,

Whoops. The spaces were a mistake: I'm not proposing to add those. I meant "(4.0+10.0j)" rather than "(4.0 + 10.0j)".
