I don't think examples should be integrated in the function-definition. It's *way* to much bloat.
I like the way http://clojure-examples.appspot.com/clojure.core goes. A wiki-like documentation for examples, linked to every clojure-namespace. These examples could be serialized into some data structure and integrated in clojure.jar. This would result in no bloat for core.clj etc. and nice, accessible examples for our development-tools.
