In teaching people Clojure, non-intuitive behavior with use/require is
the #1 problem for beginners, by a mile. I believe we need both
ordinary function and macro versions, and I am pretty sure that a well-
considered patch implementing this would be accepted.
SS: is require* an acceptable name for the function version?

require and use which no longer require (ha!) the use of quoted
parens.
Absolutely not! Having 'require' as an ordinary function (not a
macro) is important for code-generating code.
