Ancestors: Collections-ul.365

Integrated Brent Pinkney's object-concatenation enhancement.  This extends the Object API to allow easy object concatenation, just as Exceptions may be easily concatenated with the #, (comma) selector, now any object may, as well:

  object1, object2  --> "{ object1.  object2 }"

and, equally, with other collections:

  { object1.  object2 }, object3 --> "{ object1.  object2. object3 }"
