What if we solved the readability problem?

I know emacs indents everything nicely but suppose we did the following:
#1. Continue using parentheses to open
#2. Use ] to close remaining open parentheses up to cursor on current line
#3. Use } to close remaining open parentheses up to current line in file

Alternatively, we could:
#4. Use ] to close remaining open parentheses for just the current
argument to a function
#5. Use } for #4 but up to the current line

Go fetch paredit.el!
