Thanks a lot! I'll check it out.

@plexus heya I went ahead and reverted after reviewing a lot more yesterday - it was clear to me all the nuances of the problem

but they all boil down to my original misunderstanding that the tweaks to make the cljs.user stuff work just isn't all that relevant

allowing macros to expand to ns or ns* just introduces a whole lot of complexity that is avoided when you have only one ns form and you can stop immediately.

surprisingly the special cases for user.clj patterns is not actually any different

there won't be a single ns form, but there will be multiple ns* forms that lead to the same thing - i.e. not doing anything fundamentally different
