When writing a Clojure namespace very often I would like to sort my functions according to level of abstraction, starting with the most abstract functions, followed by helper functions to the more abstract functions, and so on. This way of organizing code is promoted as good style by the Clean Code guys. However, to do this in Clojure one would have to declare almost every function in the namespace before actually defining it, since namespaces are interpreted top-down. This strikes me as very ugly. Since other functional languages like Haskell manage to avoid this problem, I would like to suggest that Clojure should provide a way to support this organizational scheme in the future.
