I don't mind `#:`, but I'd prefer to write `[#:foo 5]` rather than
`#:foo [foo 5]`, that is, I don't like the repetition of the name (I
first came to Racket precisely to avoid repeating code).
When I expressed that a few years ago, I was told it would be unlikely
to change in the future though, which is perfectly understandable
given how deeply this goes.
make-keyword-procedure helps with that specific complaint - you don't
need to introduce a formal for the keyword value. But it doesn't help
with my complaint (symbolic "existence" keywords) because Racket
requires a keyword to have an accompanying value in the argument list.
