This looks really great. Due to limitations in Clojure's interop I'm forced
to use much more Java than I'd like in Cursive itself, I'll definitely give
this a go. The only problem for me might be running IntelliJ under OpenJDK,
I seem to recall that this didn't work well.

How well does this work for redefining classes generated by protocols and
the like? Does this fix a lot of the problems with redefinition of them? I
can imagine it might be problematic because redefined protocol classes are
loaded with a different DynamicClassLoader (if I remember correctly), so
the new version will still be a different class instance even if the class
itself has been correctly updated.
