But this exposes a bigger problem: when doing interactive
development,
you will end up with old definitions sticking around. You are
debugging one case of your function, and change the pattern a little.
Personally, I suffer from interactive development problems even with
merely using def/defn.
In general the way repl's handle state is pretty busted.
Ever create a piece of data and then later wonder, how the heck did I make this?

You could also have 1 file for inputs, and 1 file for outputs.
One of the most useless things about repl's is when you go back to the
saved sessions, the input and output are mixed together in an
indistinguishable mess.

Is it possible to have something like this as a lein plugin?

Sure, you could write an alternate repl that did this fairly easily,
though doing it in Swank would be more work.
Your best bet would be to build it on reply:

Mathematica implements a version of open and order-independent

The design of Mathematica's pattern matching is tightly coupled to the
language's computational model, as well as with all other aspects of
the system. So a lot of it would
Lots to think about :)
I definitely agree there needs to be a simple way to query a predicate
dispatch system in order for it to work well in larger programs. But I
haven't thought about it much more then that yet.
