Anthony Grimes made a find-fn <https://github.com/Raynes/findfn> that finds
functions based on input parameters and output functions.
So something like (find-fn clojure.core [1 2] {:a 1 :b 2}) would return
vals and (find-fn clojure.core [:a :b] {:a 1 :b 2}) would return keys.
It would be great if we would have an online version that could do that.
The biggest problem would be how to specify which namespaces (from clojars
available libraries ?) you'd want to have searched.
