Problem description

As discussed in #development:

@benj5378: @CorvusCorax idk if an issue already exists... but please open an issue on GitHub requesting implementation of __repr__ across objects in all of FreeCAD. It's actually a very big issue, making it very difficult to use Python Console.

https://docs.python.org/3/reference/datamodel.html#object.__repr__

Like even this

Gui.ActiveDocument <GUI Document object at 0x5791140ea400>

If __repr__ was implemented, it would be

Gui.ActiveDocument <GUI Document MyNewTable>

Really bad user experience

We also found out that Gui.Control.activeDialog() only returns true or false instead of a python representation of the dialog to interact . Instead there is Gui.Control.activeTaskDialog() but it has no __repr__ so you can't tell which one.

This issue could act as a meta-issue for general improvements and housecleaning of the Python API in case more are found - in any way this is post 1.0 work and not super urgent.

Gui.Control.activeTaskDialog() returns Task Dialog as __repr__ for the class. It would be much better if it returned <Task Dialog Sketcher Edit> for instance

Gui.ActiveDocument return <GUI Document object at 0x5791140ea400> as __repr__ , it would be much better if it returned <GUI Document MyNewTable>
