Similarly, but I would be explicit about the different arities, to avoid
the intermediate sequence created by [arg & [option]] and to get errors if
there are too many arguments.
(defn foo
([input] (foo input (chan 1))
([input ch]
... do something and put to ch ...))

Hey,
what is your definition of an async function in Clojure? I imagine
something something that starts a (go ...), if appropriate you can use the
result of (go ...) as the result of the function since that is a channel
that will receive the return value of the go block when it dies.
(defn sta
+1, this is mostly what we resort to.
(defn some-async-func [param-a param-b & [out-chan]]
(let [ch (or out-chan (chan)]
...

Make the channel optional. If it's provided, use that and return it. If
it's not provided, create a new one and use and return that.
This way the caller gets to decide which they wish to use based on who the
owner of the channel should be or if the channel should be reused else
