Hi,

I find myself frequently using the `comp' and `partial' functions and
while I really enjoy being able to program in a point free style, the
length (in characters) of these command names often has the effect of
causing what should be a brief statement to span multiple lines.

I'm about to begin starting all of my clojure namespaces with
(def o comp) ; o for cOmp, Haskell's (.) or Mathematical composition \circ
(def p partial) ; p for partial

However, I'm worried that this could limit the readability of my code,
and given that this issue has (sort of) come up previously [1] [2], I
figured I'd ask...

Is there any support for including these function aliases for `comp' and
`partial' (or some other shortened names) in the core?

Best -- Eric
