using (in-readtable) to select a readtable

It doesn't ignore it. If *READTABLE-ALIST* is indeed used for
source-code navigation,
than the CL code responsible for that is already enclosed in
WITH-BUFFER-SYNTAX,
and thus SLY will consider whatever readtable indication travelled
down the wire.

BTW it's not SLY that provides support for NAMED-READTABLES, it's the
external contrib
I pointed to.
