Ah, I see that part of the reason it’s not yet documented is that it’s not really finished; you can’t, for example, use a keyword as a function with it. Trying to use #=(:tap-tempo control-buttons) as a case target fails with clojure.lang.Keyword cannot be cast to clojure.lang.Symbol. I guess I will give up on it until/unless it gets finished and becomes official. :)
