Thanks! I should have thought of that, but for some reason I didn't
consider using advice (probably a habit formed by avoiding advice in
packages).

Not yet :) Closures are very elegant. But I only recently started
converting my Elisp code to lexical binding, so almost all of it works
just fine under dynamic binding for now.
Now if the byte-compiler learned how to do tail-call elimination, I might
find myself writing more of my Elisp in a pure functional style...
Just sayin' ;-)
