Depending on other design decisions, it make make sense to consider this an IDE issue. That is, maybe the best thing is to have some kind of interactive value in the REPL that lets the user have control over the effects. (And this doesn't just have to be via some kind of simplistic mouse clicking -- I think there is a lot of unexplored UI space here).
