I'd primarily use the registry for my applications, but testing inputs dynamically lacks support around maps with the exception of map-of. Right now the only reasonable solution I see is to write my own s/keys-like predicate. The request was to allow maps to be tested with a generated spec in the same way every other Clojure data structure can be (sans-registry) as it seems missing, but not challenge the registry concept and its value. > > >> - Allow a *spec-registry* binding, enabling the use of multiple registries >> > > The notion of multiple registries is something that's been raised, but > Rich will have to be the one to comment on that. > This could also solve my particular use-case, and I'm sure has some other uses.
