Hi, I'm wondering if people might have advice on how to deal with the issue of reloading protocol definitions. Currently in Overtone things break when we reload some namespaces because once a defprotocol form is re-evaluated the existing types that implement that protocol are no longer valid because they refer to the old protocol, even when it hasn't changed. Our current fix is to wrap all protocols in a defonce form, but this isn't the prettiest solution ever. Is it crazy to imagine that protocols could remain the same after a reload unless they have changed, so that this problem would only be caused by actually changing a protocol rather than just re-evaluating a defprotocol form? I don't know enough about the underlying machinery in terms of java class types and compilation to know if this is a reasonable thing to do. Otherwise, maybe there is another way to handle the issue?
