This gets tricky if there are local names that are the same that
should shadow it, though.
If it's the lexical scope and you're just passing symbols to called
functions, i.e. if you did none of this that lexical scope would be
loaded with things like
(some-fn this that 'localities.Locality the-other)
then why not just wrap in
(let [Locality 'localities.Locality]
...)
and maybe make a sugaring macro that expands
(the-macro [localities.Locality foo.Bar baz.Quux ...]
...)
into
(let [Locality 'localities.Locality
Bar 'foo.Bar
Quux 'baz.Quux
...]
...)
?
