So folks have been discussing the desirability of having a way to
change "Common Lisp" a lot lately. And other folks point out that
many, or even most, changes that folks want could be built *in* Common
Lisp. But not all. So my question is, what features that you think
might usefully be available to you in a Common Lisp environment have
to be provided by the CL implementation itself. With the help of a few
folks on #lisp I've got this list so far:
- multithreading
- unicode
- foreign function interface
- extensible streams (e.g. Gray or Simple)
- specific behaviors of standard CL functions allow but not mandated
by the standard, e.g. a particular semantics for the various
pathname-related functions.
Any others? (I'm not counting things that could be provided using an
FFI, such as an interface to sockets.)
