my 0.02 about short-circuiting: when using a conditional form (like when-let), people should be prepared for some of their code not being evaluated. and you should try to stay sideffect-free anyway, so i vote for short-circuiting.
What would the semantics of IF-LET* be, or should it be then exciced, and short-circuiting left for WHEN-LET*? That is, would (if-let* ((foo (foo)) (bar (bar))) (foobar foo bar) (progn (bar (ensure-bar)) (foobar foo bar))) be legal? Cheers, -- Nikodemus
