Srfi-10-style literals would be more appealing if they integrated
well with quasi-quotation.

What I'd mean is that something like this should be well-defined:
   `#,(tag datum1 ,datum2 ,@datum3)

If tag is defined using:
   (define-reader-ctor tag constructor)
the this would be equivalent to:
   `(,constructor datum1 ,datum2 ,@datum3)

Not sure how useful this is.  Also, the use of comma
in #, might be confusing whencombined with quasi-quotation.
