I too prefer to move in the direction of less back-compatibility constraint rather than more.

If I had written the module, I would prefer the altered doctest as being less fragile and representation dependent. For 1 or 2 objects, I prefer the from form anyway. So yes to those from me.

I am curious what Steven thinks, should he care to opine.
