[PyQt] Idea: Show QObject.objectName() in __repr__

[Florian Bruhin]

I noticed the __repr__ of Qt objects is usually just python's default,
which isn't too useful.

Then I had an idea: What about showing the objectName in __repr__ for
all QObjects as default in PyQt? So basically having something like
this as __repr__:

    def __repr__(self):
        name = self.objectName()
        if name:
            return '<{} named {}>'.format(self.__class__.__name__, name)
        else:
            return '<{}>'.format(self.__class__.__name__)
