Given how easy it is in Common Lisp to ruin the global environment during development, I can already see how important first-class global environments will be for the use of an IDE.

With an implementation such as SBCL, I find myself having to restart the system fairly often, and even more so because of the way SICL bootstrapping abuses the SBCL global environment. It would seem reasonable that this action would then be replaced by ditching the current first-class global environment and create a fresh one.

Enough work for today. I'll hang around a bit and then I need to go fix dinner for my (admittedly small) family. I think all the phase-specific imports from the host now create instances of SICL SIMPLE-FUNCTION in E5, but there is still a function that is called for every environment that still imports "raw" host functions. I need to break that up so that it is different in different phases.
