I find that quite heavy for procedure headers, and most of the time I use the same symbol for the identifier and the keyword (and when I don't it's because I'm simply lazy and use a shorter identifier). Is there a rationale somewhere for that? Would it be a bad idea for Racket2 to consider that keyword identifiers are the same as the keyword without the `#:' ? Laurent
