Comment (by nslagle):

 This would be, essentially, a "stringification" of a model, much like
 __repr__ (representation) in Python.  We could potentially simplify the
 load/save feature by invoking this __repr__-type function for an object
 (such as BinarySpaceTree), depending on the elements we intend to load and
 save.  Then again, this feature might necessarily output information we
 don't need saved (or rather, would prefer not to save considering the
 memory footprint.)

 In any event, we should homogenize method interfaces wherever possible, so
 depending on the time needed, this could be a good thing to do before the
 release.
