I think clc-(un)register-user-package is quite useful for
users to manage his own packages.

After c-l-c is removed, will $HOME/.clc still be used? Any 
replacement for clc-(un)register-user-package? 

asdf-install is good, but SBCL has its own asdf-install, and it 
puts all libraries in $HOME/.sbcl while other implementations don't,
I know that the locations can be customized, but to customize it
in every lisp implementations is really tedious.
 
Most libraries can work across implementations, so even though 
asdf-install is quite handy, I still prefer to manage libraries 
myself by c-l-c so that they can be shared between implementations.
