Please, don't cross-post. It's really inconvenient.
There are AFAIK two separate issues.
a) Whehter there is a bug Launchpad has the bug report marked invalid even though there was a pending question from TCR as to what the nature of the bug may be.
b) Whether the existing API is understood by _others_ to be in conflict. That the conflict is an invalid bug does not mean that the scope of the issue shouldn't be recorded to the mailing list for future reference.
If you had waited for a response on launchpad prior to marking the bug invalid then I could understand your admonition that it is "really inconvenient". However, without a chance for others (not just the set of one whose sole member is Stas) to consider the issue at hand it seems "inconvenient" that you would squash my reasoned attempt to present what I believe is a problem. Maybe someone sometime in the future will find reference to the problem description in this thread useful.
FWIW Slime is descended from ilisp...
