Interesting, I am also interested in finding an "idiomatic" way of aliasing
comp and partial.

Francois Devlin in his Full Disclojure pocast (
http://vimeo.com/channels/fulldisclojure/8665159) is using:

(def & comp)
(def p partial)

Can't be simpler, but of course you can't use p as a variable anymore.

Couldn't we use single non-ASCII characters character for example Greek
letters, ...?
APL anyone ?, no ? :)
