Thanks all.  LightTable does look awesome and I haven't invested enough
time to fully get to grips with it yet, but I am not sure it would be an
upgrade for me (wow - I am really going with the flame bait today!).
 Coming from IntelliJ, which is a pretty fantastic general (i.e. Java,
scala, clojure, Javascript) editor to Emacs (which is an even better
general purpose editor) to a Clojure specific editor is a step backwards.

To be explicit, I marvel at the engineering behind LightTable, my concern
is it might be too focused and not general enough.
