I am very glad to see this!  Could you comment on what larger influence
with might have on Emacs Lisp as a language.  E.g. in bug#57907 there
was a discussion how adding keyword support for cl-loop was not
necessary for Emacs Lisp, but now that symbol packages might become a
thing, would that have to change?  How would the support look like from
a backwards compatibility perspective?  I am assuming all old code would
be loaded into the default packages, right?
