Basically it sounds like the OP wants to see the attribute values for an 
object (and those objects' attribute values, ...). Presumably the 
recursive descent could be stopped at the built-in types.

I'm not familiar with any such thing. The code of the standard library's 
pprint module might be a good place to start (and the suggested 
functionality might make a nice addition if we could work out exactly 
what the requirement was).
