One slash dotter said that they would like a tool that could scan objects in memory. But XML seems the only likely candidate for a format that a universal tool would parse. "Your tool sounds interesting. But what I'm talking about is for actual instances of objects, not source code-which would give only classes, not objects. I described objects serialized in XML, and possibly the actual binaries in RAM".

A follow up emailer suggested that it might be useful for forensic parsing of on-disk structures.
