I like the addition of binding constructs to `cond`, so I think `cond*`
could be a worthwhile addition, actually.

But I think the two pattern languages (that of `cond*`s `match*` and
that of Pcase) need to be unified, because they're already too similar
to justify having them both.  This would be a very simple change that
simplifies the implementation (and the doc) significantly.
