I don't have any experience with them, and only little experience with
`loop' in general, so it is hard for me to judge.

If you could describe the cases where the current spec doesn't work, and
the cases where the complex spec works better as well as where it fails
(and whether the current spec also fails for those), that would be
very helpful.

AFAIK the default is to use (&rest &or symbolp form) as debug spec,
which should already be a good bit better than nothing.
