Re: [Scheme-reports] display should not guarantee termination



The current wording can be read a bit wider than requiring labels on
circular objects; that is, it can be read as display must terminate on
any objects (even if the object is implementation's extension), which
concerns me.  If I can read it that the behavior only describes on the
domain of r7rs, I'm ok with it.
