Why is this PR for?
The current implementation of
fc.object/fc.anythingwas rarely able to generate strings looking as string representations of real objects. As this kind of objects is a known source of issues in computer science, I wanted to add an easy way to generate some of those instances.By settings
withObjectStringtotrueon yourfc.objectarbitraries you'll be able to get strings looking as objects more often (as values but also as keys).In a nutshell
Potential impacts
No impact expected as the feature has been added as a flag.
We might find ways to put such flag as the default in the future.
