hi. small question that came up at clj-kondo and I wonder how joker thinks about it: if you write 'foo/bar or

`foo/bar

(quote foo/bar)

In the case of protocol metadata, there is something you're implementing though. And maybe you are expecting something else to use it.

@dominicm were you responding to my question? can you give an example - what do you think the behavior should be?

I was, yeah 🙂 Don't have a strong opinion, just weighing in that:

(with-meta obj {`foo/bar (fn [this] …)})

oh, I guess this is about unused-require vs unused-ns? Is there an unused-ns?

unused-require I mean yes

maybe syntax-quote is a good to choice to count the namespace as used, e.g. in writing macros, you’ll often want to load the namespaces, even if you’re only generating code that will use those namespaces and you’re not using them at macro definition time

so from that angle, joker’s behavior makes total sense

The ' makes no sense though, the require has nothing to do with that
