Ah, that use case.

I would expect the display hook would be such that it would print:

def f():
  ...
ueotoeu
uoou.
.i
[ output snipped; 185 more lines ]

I.e. it would be friendlier in that it would not print \n's (you'd had
to do repr(_12)) and would not flood your terminal screen with reams
of garbage.
