a) if anything is going to happen on this at the next meeting, we need a
proposal writeup. This week.
b) I like the proposal (in Jeff's oiginal "potential issue"). I agree that
we might want something stronger -- like extending the list of special
forms to include the ones that a code walker *really* has to know about,
but I don't know if we can reach closure.
c) I'd rather do nothing than do something wrong.
