I'd like to have a function

Still very verbose: call-with- + lambda, or in your case call-with- + #' + lambda, is a lot of noise. Seems like a bad idiom to me.
It's less noisy than writing the LET+UWP directly that usually is what CALL-WITH boils down to.
I usually refactor from LET+UWP into CALL-WITH, not thinking much about the interface, and only when I made up an opinion about the interface I go to a WITH- macro.
I'm tempted to change SWANK indentation update code to recognize and treat specially functions starting with CALL-WITH, and having a last parameter named FUNCTION or CONTINUATION.
I could see people not wanting it, so let me ask what you guys think. Should this be default behaviour, go to a contrib, or should I be damned for raising the question?
I don't want that as default.
Noted.
