It might be more elegant to take advantage of s-expressions for this, as in

  (module mylib
    (def func-a ...))
and

  (w/module mylib
    (func-a ...))
rather than having imperative declarations that apply to an entire file.

Thinking about module/namespace systems in general, I guess as long as definitions are still global by default then they shouldn't bother anyone who doesn't want them. You might also be interested in aw's piece on library dependencies: http://awwx.ws/thinking-about-dependencies
