nREPL provides a feature for eval where you can choose the namespace to eval in. This is very useful - in Cursive, when a user sends a form from a file it’s evaluated in the file’s namespace, rather than user or whatever the REPL happens to be in. Am I correct in assuming that unrepl doesn’t support this, since the input is streaming?

Related to the above, is there any advantage to having the input streaming that I’m missing? As opposed to also sending structured messages like nREPL does. Is it just to aid nestability?
