That sounds very interesting. I have been playing with various ideas for reusing method code in several defttypes, but I am not really happy with any of them. Macros are difficult to use because nothing at the toplevel of a deftype form is macro-expanded. Syntax-quote is messy because it requires so many symbols to be prefixed with ~'. I ended up writing my own little templating system but its use is getting messier all the time as well.
