It'd certainly be nice to have a human-readable save file. But it'd be a lot of work for something that's rarely actually useful. It'd also bloat savefile size and save/load times somewhat, though I doubt it'd be noticeable on modern computers.
My guess is that if someone were to present it as a fait accompli then it'd be accepted into the codebase, but I'd be surprised if any of our regular contributors thought it worth the effort.
