I think it can sometimes be desirable to import the whole public interface except certain bindings. Could you give a non-contrived example? I can't think of any, myself. I remember toying w/ the idea when adding ‘#:renamer’, w/ same doubts. [...] and require me to change my header as the module changes. Note that maintaining a blacklist and maintaining a whitelist is still maintenance. Better to ‘#:select’ exactly what you need and no more, i.e., take a purely constructive stance. That's maintenance, too, but the eye work is locally concentrated, which builds Quality, rather than broadly dispersed, which destroys (or, at best, delays) trust.
