Just a thought... is it worth taking the opportunity to provide a
generalized mechanism for
paramterizing the reader--rather along the lines of XML processing
instructions? One idea
might be have a mechanism for setting values (eg, #<case-sensitive=#t>)
another might be
to actually evaluate code during reading (eg, #<read-case-sensitive! #t>).
Again, just a thought...
