Huh? I don't see why I wire server at macro expansion time. You can
pass a variable and it'll be integrated in the emitted code.

(with-server (concat "http://"; "localhost" ":5984")
  (database-list))

will expand to

(binding [database-list (partial database-list (concat "http://";
"localhost" ":5984"))]
   (database-list))
