Precisely, as I learned the hard way, much of that code already
means that the custom sequence idea expressed very sparsely
at the top isn't quite so.  IMO it'd be very nice to have a contract
we can stick to for a long time.  At least for such a fundamental
thing in a Lisp language.  It'll be a lot of work to go
through the corner cases and write that contract, but better
late than never, I guess.
