Yes, but let me first make sure I understand. Is the reason that we
do not want _any_ symbol as car of the list that forbidding _any_
symbol as car of the list actually seems _more natural_ than just
forbidding lambda?
Right. It is not clean to make an exception for "lambda".
It is clean to make an exception for lists of symbols.
I agree, test-completion should be fixed. Would you like
to fix that?
There are several ways to do that. The easiest one would probably be
to make assoc-string be able to handle symbols as well as strings.
But maybe that would be too radical?
I think that would be ok. Since its basic purpose is to operate on strings,
it could operate on symbols as if they were strings.
