I'm not sure if this helps, but in my Compojure project, I build up
response objects based on the type of the object being returned.
(GET "/" 200) ; returns HTTP code 200
(GET "/" "Hello") ; adds to the response body
(GET "/" {"X-Header" "something}) ; adds a header
(GET "/" (new Cookie ...)) ; adds a cookie to the response
(GET "/" (new File ...)) ; streams a file to the response
(GET "/" [200 {"X-Test" "Foo"} "Hello"]) ; vector combines multiple
effects
Maybe you could take a similar approach with your xlightweb interface?
(post-url "http://example.com"; {:name "blah"} (new Cookie ...)

This could be useful. I've written some functions that find all of an
object's getters and use them to populate a hash-map, but it would be
nice to have a direct proxy onto the object.
