For instance, hiccup.core/html and hiccup.core/h cannot live in the same 
namespace in ClojureScript if hiccup.core/html is going to be a macro, and 
hiccup.core/h is going to be a run-time function (which is how things are 
implemented in hiccup).

Well, I guess maybe they can (I have not tested this), but then you'd end 
up with ambiguities like this (in ClojureScript):

    (ns example
      (:use [crate.core :as crate.core])
      (:use-macros [crate.core :as crate.core]))

I suppose that could be worked around by giving each alias a different 
namespace, but that seems very confusing to me and I'm not even sure it 
would work.
