...Interesting! - I guess the main difference to what I have in mind
is that cl-deftype appears to require some lisp code for FORMS.
I am thinking about replacing these forms by some more readable
pattern such as the one I included in my first post. The function
bbdb-check-type then compares an arbitrary lisp object against such
pattern. I find it more readable and also more flexible to define
patterns instead of hacking actual code.
