Stathis, I use the Lazytest watcher partly out of convenience. I happen to use Lazytest for testing so it's usually already running anyway. However, some work has already been done to extract the watch functionality [1]. It might be fun to combine your viewer with it. Maybe have a naming

Well, there isn't much preventing it from being 1.3. It used to be blocked by the dependency to clojure.contrib.miglayout, but then Stephen Gilardi released artem (https://github.com/scgilardi/artem) which provided a way out. I think it's probably a matter of days before I get a version that's
