how to specify the readtable to be used when swank is handling request from slime

When you work with SLIME and your code depends on customized readtable, how do you ensure slime requests are handled with your readtable?

I mean for example in CCL, when :span communication style is used by SLIME each requests is handled by new thread and new threads are initialized with default value of cl:*readtable*.

In my source code I have (eval-when (:compile-toplevel :load-toplevel :execute) (when (find-package :swank) (eval (read-from-string "(push `(*readtable* . ,*readtable*) swank:*default-worker-thread-bindings*)"))))

but I am afraid it is not the conventional way and depends on swank being already loaded at the moment my code is loaded.

What is the better way?
