I think this is a very important point. I don't think enough people agree
on the REPL semantics to warrant any defining or standard semantics for
the REPL in Thing One. Maybe we could have differing models standardized
for reference and easy discussion, but nonetheless, I don't think they
need to be standardized the way people want, because someone is going to
be very unhappy if their REPL is forced to changed from their old behavior.
