Such a specification looks a lot like a set of unit tests, though I'm sure you may push it beyond. Thus, I think it might be nice if these specification clauses could be set as metadata to the function as well, and yet register to your check-on-load system. The clojure.contrib.test-is library supplies such a framework whereby unit tests may be specified either as function metadata or by themselves, using macro deftest.
