I'm all for that. I was regularly running into that problem when comparing 
object arrays or chararrays, that's why I modified assert_equal in 
the "maskedarray" version of testutils (scipy SVN). 
>>>from maskedarray.testutils import assert_equal
>>>a = N.array(['a','b','c'])
>>>assert_equal(a,a.copy())
>>>assert_equal(a,a[::-1])
AssertionError:
Items are not equal:
item=0

 ACTUAL: 'a'
 DESIRED: 'c'
