Comment:

 This would be pretty great. I'd feel more comfortable with it if either of
 these functions had any unit test coverage.

 Moving the call to `get_category_parents()` into `get_the_term_list()` is
 problematic, because `get_category_parents()` is compatible only with
 categories. This would probably have to be accompanied by a taxonomy-
 agnostic `get_term_parents()` (with `get_category_parents()` converted to
 a wrapper).
