This reflects a style pattern that I've come to appreciate more recently: when breaking a call with a long argument list to fit on your screen, instead of trying to find the optimal break points in the argument list, take one or two of the longest arguments and put them in local variables.
...
If we apply this to the anonymous block problem, we may end up finding lambda the ultimate compromise -- like a gentleman in the back of my talk last week at baypiggies observed (unfortunately I don't know his name).
I like it: Lambda: The Ultimate Compromise (c.f. http://library.readscheme.org/page1.html) kb
