This has came up numerous times in other posts here. I can't hunt them down 
currently but the quoted symbol issue you showed is just a misunderstanding of 
how the reader macro for metadata works. 

Try (meta '^{:foo :bar} a)

When you put the reader macro in front of the quote it is applied to the quote 
form itself - as a data structure list - and then the metadata is not 
propagated to the return of the eval of the quote so it seems "lost".
