Just guessing from past experience in the Clojure internals:

Instrumenting protocol methods it likely possible, but unlikely to be worth 
the effort.

There are already a bunch of places where protocol functions are different. 
The accepted convention is to always wrap a protocol method with a normal 
function to recover the benefits. The pattern usually looks like:

(defprotocol P
  (-foo [x y z]))

(defn foo [x y z]
  (-foo x y z))

Put your spec on foo, not -foo.

This tends to be good practice anyway because you have a place to wrap 
global behavior around -foo.
