Not at the moment, but I'm open to suggestions from the community

If you want to work with dependencies, Pomegranate [1] is a very good 
interface to Aether [2], for working with all JVM artifact repositories. 
CrossClj does not add more reasoning on top of what is provided by 
Pomegranate. However, I understand that Pomegranate is not usable from 
ClojureScript.

IMO, searching function definitions and function applications across the 
whole ecosystem would not be very usable from an IDE, since you don't have 
all artifacts locally installed; as far as you have them installed, an 
intelligent IDE such as Cursive can perform all kinds of magic, otherwise 
the next best solution is to use a site like CrossClj which enables 
"exploratory browsing" on libraries you don't have (yet) installed.

But still, I'm open to the discussion, and I will keep in mind your 
suggestion.
