I have been digging through the dfmc/reader code for a few things and
noticed an extension that is implemented in there ...

I'd seen the discussion of this feature from 1999 here:

(and replies to those posts)

I hadn't realized that it was actually implemented though. (See
make-hash-literal in dfmc/reader/lexer.dylan...)

Is there any interest in having a DEP written to describe this?

It seems like a useful enough extension (and people seemed to agree back in
1999) ...
