You might have a difficult time getting other Clojure coders to adopt the practice in their code, but would this be almost as good?
(let [x 2] code) Achieving that would be as simple as hand-indenting it that way, or adjusting the auto-indenter of your favorite text editor to do it that way. A couple of minutes of perusing clojure-mode.el for emacs didn't make it obvious to me how to do that, but I suspect it wouldn't be difficult.
