[slime-devel] slime-repl-insert-prompt question

Is there a reason why the protocol should handle inserting the result 
of a repl evaluation with dedicated code vs just letting the lisp side 
print it? I ask because now that there are nested presentations, there 
are advantages to having the lisp side do the printing. In particular a 
list result which has presented objects in could have the elements of 
the list work as individual presentations in addition to the whole list 
being available for re-use, whereas in the current situation you can 
only get hold of the complete result.
