No, sorry, I think that's a rather unreasonable request. I'm not going to spend
hours sifting through the core and contrib just to jerk out examples for you.
I'd rather use logic and reason to make my case.
I don't think that this was intended to be unreasonable. I believe the
motivation here is to help everyone understand the basis for your idea
with a concrete example. No one would want you to spend hours sifting
through code to prove a point. I would just start with a few reasonable
places and see if you can code up a quick example. I believe that this
is a fair request. I would very much like to see some specific examples
as it would help solidify your ideas.
Cheers,

I haven't coded long enough in Clojure to provide you with any examples, but it
seems like hoping that the functions you're going to use are going to have the
correct parameter order is silly. Why hope when you can guarantee it won't
matter?
Anyways, you haven't seen a lot of examples simply because people don't have a --> to
use. Thus they're are forced to work around it, for example by replacing calls to -> or
->> with the corresponding standard calls (postfix/prefix? don't remember what that
style is called).
If it existed, you would see it being used.
If that's true, then it should be easy to find places in either
clojure.contrib or the parts of clojure.core that are written in
clojure that could make use of it.
Have you checked for those?
