Actually, I started to implement the variant you described, but
abandoned it, because I thought that ability to format a string
in `pp-to-string' might be generally useful.  However, formatting
a string will be equally easy even with a separate function that
formats a buffer (by inserting that string into a temporary buffer).
So a separate function you described is ok (I'd name it `pp-buffer').
