Hmm - both literal clojure structures, and JSON, are tempting.
JSON is probably my preferred option - but a lot depends on the audience.
If the audience is lisp programmers, then literal structures is probably
ideal.
If the audience is other programmers, I'd probably go for JSON.

Having great string and regex manipulation is a must for anything that
will be used as a scripting language and I think this should be
conveniently available in Clojure.
So, yes, I agree that these functions are ones that it makes sense to
wrap.
