My experience as a spectator has been that almost all ELisp programmers
are aware of cl.el and don't redefine its functions.
FWIW, I am strongly in favor of making cl.el a first-class citizen. The
pain of the promotion is outweighed by the benefits IMO.

I hope that's not an impediment. Maybe it can be an optional extra
volume to the ELisp manual.
