Attached is a patch, which turns the default dispatch value from a positional argument
into a keyword argument. The syntax is:

(defmulti name dispatch-fn :default dispatch-value)

Uses of the old syntax throw an exception pointing to the new syntax.

Another update of the patch, also including docstring and metadata support, similar to defn.

This was brought up several times on the list. Eg. in the thread:
