[Message part 3 (text/plain, inline)]

Run emacs -Q. Type the number 23 in the scratch buffer. eval-last-sexp
and see in the minibuffer: "23". eval-last-sexp again and see in the
minibuffer: "23 (#o27, #x17, ?\C-w)". I didn't expect (#o27, #x17,
?\C-w).

Using recent trunk.

This is implemented now, including other discussed changes.
