Every time you try a geiser command without an active REPL, there's an
error message in the echo area saying

"No Geiser REPL for this buffer (try M-x run-geiser)"

If that message wasn't displayed in Neil's case, that's a bug.

It could, but it's a lot of work :-) It can also be annoying to keep
answering questions: i'd need to keep track of whether i've already
asked, options would be needed to deactivate the behaviour, to make
auto-loading the default... more work... I think i'd need one or two
more users feeling the need for this feature (i don't) :-).
