Wow, that's really scary.
An alternative might be to define your own repl that allows you do
define items that should be handled specially, and pass everything
else to a normal eval, i.e. very roughly:
(let ((next (read)))
(if (special-value? next)
(lookup-and-do-special-thing-for next)
(print (eval next (current-module)))))
and then have a little function that lets you register the special
symbols.
