E.g. to avoid conflicts: some other language might have similar but not
quite the same conventions and to avoid the risk of conflicts you
re-implement some of the conventions.

When I'm programming Emacs Lisp I use emacs-lisp-mode and I assume that
the default indentation function, i.e. lisp-indentation-function, will
handle all relevant macros. I fail to see why using
common-lisp-indent-function in emacs-lisp-mode is such a bright idea.
