I'll let others comment further on your general workflow, but I do think you have a fundamental misunderstanding about the browser repl.
The browser repl is directly connected to the browser, so you don't need to refresh the page to see changes you're making at the browse repl. In fact, if you refresh the page, the browser repl's state is lost and the js state is reset to the base compiled files. Now with nrepl's ability to have multiple sessions open at once (an ability I haven't taken any advantage of personally), you should be able to have a JVM nrepl open _and_ a browser repl nrepl session, both of which would be modifying client and server sides of the code respectively. When thinking about the browser repl, I find it best to think in terms of the browser tab being the JVM. If the browser tab goes down, I loose all my state without recompiling the file, which involves either running it through the compilation phase of gclosure or reconnecting and reloading the files.
