    Have always had this as a wishlist item for call-interactively 
    --namely the ability to do with call-interactively what one can
    do with funcall.

    Thus given:

    (defun foo (a b c)
    (interactive ...)...)

    (funcall 'foo 1 2 3 ;;; calls foo non-interactively 
    (call-function-interactivly  'foo 1 2 3 )
    ; do the equivalent but make it look as if foo  as was called
    interactvely i.e. 
    (interactive-p) inside foo evaluates to true.

That is a pretty clear request.  Can you show some examples
of when it would be useful?
