The idea is that all the relevant objects (request, replies, servers) are CLOS objects (which is already the case) and exported (which isn't the case now) so that you can subclass them and write your own methods which override the default behaviour.
One example usage for this would be in a web framework that associates certain kinds of information (i.e. sessions, users, uploaded files) with a request earlier in the request processing chain. Currently, this can be done using the aux-request-value mechanism, but that is rather clumsy.
