I think what I meant was mentioned also by the others: don't extend a protocol 
to a type if you don't own either one. Doing so if you don't own one of them, 
this is basically equivalent to

(in-ns 'some.other.namespace)

(let [orig-x some-x]
  (defn some-x
    [foo]
    (if (my-foo? foo)
      (do-stuff foo)
      (orig-x foo))))

At least IMHO.

Sincerely
Meikel
