Even though I think it's a questionable feature, the fact that popularScheme implementations already implement #; is a strong argument infavor of standardizing it with a SRFI. The SRFI only mentions this ispassing, in "This syntax is already in wide use". I suggest mentioningthe "existing art" more prominently in the Rationale, perhaps listingknown implementations that provide the feature.
