Logged In: YES user_id=371366 I am only guessing, here, but if you had an object that you wanted to embed a representation of in a URL or in HTML form data, it would be prudent to call str() on the object and let its __str__ method give you a string representation, and then you'd percent-encode that. This makes sense for user- defined classes, where you can define __str__, but not for built-in types like an ordinary list, so they give you the doseq flag for those situations.
