I think it is a working, perfectly clean idea, myself.  It's a
namespace of its own and there are only a very few inconsistencies
within it, well justified by the very nature of the namespace.  That
minor nits such as #s and #| being a bit off the paradigm apply
suggests that some aspects could be given more thought, but they do
not invalidate the usefulness and consistency of the design.  Rather,
they show a surprising maturity for something that probably did not
get too many iterations.
