I note people seem mainly to be using Emacs as an editing/development
environment for Clojure. But as people keep pointing out, Clojure is
homoiconic; the canonical source of a function is not a stream of
bytes read from a file, but is a structure in core.

Now, in-core editing does raise some issues - there needs to be some
means of associating the structure which is the canonical source of a
function with the function itself, so that when the user invokes (edit
froboz) (or (edit 'froboz), or whatever), the source structure for
froboz is displayed in the editor. But in-core structure editors are
extremely powerful and useful when editing homoiconic languages, so...
is anyone working on an in-core editor for Clojure?
