Couldn't you look at slime/swank as a sort of object protocol? They
already communicate through a sexy protocol of some sort (or maybe it
was sex-p, I dunno).
Could we perhaps get different swank backends to talk to each other
and get clojure/CL interop that way?
That was off-topic, I know.
Ch
Hans Hubner's BKNR framework for CL explores this in a very
interesting way - while relying on CLOS meta-object protocol the ideas
could prob. be extended to Clojure. With some ABCL interaction this
would make CL -> Clojure || Clojure -> CL interop possible at the JVM
level with persistence...
So

I've likewise though a fair bit about this, but haven't been able to
come up with a particularly satisfying solution.
One approach I've considered is a watcher-type system where
persistence is defined in terms of immutable snapshots and append-only
journals: you snapshot the data to disk occasion
