Hate to reply to myself, but hate more to post non-constructive
criticism ;) I propose changing macro to #T<...> (too bad #\<
character is taken by less-than function and we can't just plumb up
macro <foo :bar baz something>... or maybe it's possible to tell if
current character is in function-position and either return symbol, or
start a tag accordingly?)
