Re: Unsecure assoc calls

Hi Michael,

Thanks for your work on this.  I think this is excellent architectural
support for the future.

I don't think that it's worth spending time on this.  I believe that
virtually all of the assoc-get calls as currently written are written to
allow defaults without throwing a programming error, and do not need
strict_checking.

As future developments come, or as people are working on code to improve it,
if they want to add strict_checking, that would be fine.

Thanks,
Carl
