I understand (and completely agree with) the assumption of a global 
namespace for spec names.  The scope of that namespace is all Clojure 
developers.  I want a different scope:  the users of my app.  To continue 
on this thinking, if my app was shared among different customers, each 
customer would have their own namespace - their own registry.  Further, I 
suspect that the lifecycle for specs in my app's scope will be a bit 
different than the Clojure developer scope.  Specifically, I can see that 
some customers will insist on retracting specs.

Make sense?
