I actually disagree a here as core.async brings a pretty nice concurrency model into play - I suspect there are instances where you might want to construct a series of go blocks with some shared context that you'd rather not put into every go loop.
In anycase improved binding support is something I'd like to see in ClojureScript and I don't see the downside of keeping the core.async behavior the same between Clojure and ClojureScript.
