All unsigned Forms get printed as hex by FormValue. As this covers addresses for example, I wouldn’t call that a bad choice. In fact, I can’t come up right now with another attribute I’d like to see printed as decimal (but I’m sure there are some).
> (might be worth splitting the line number part of the patch out - it might be easier (as you say, it's simply printing them as decimal rather than hex - doesn't depend on access to the line table you're adding here, etc) or it might be harder/different (if we end up changing the default & trying to decide if there are places where that new default would be problematic, etc))
I’ll do that once I finish the current rework.
