New description:

 These special forms should be replaced with macros that expand to
 qualified forms:

 {{{
 quote
 syntax
 let[rec]-syntax
 location
 }}}

 These should be then removed from canonicalization (with qualified
 versions remaining):

 {{{
 let
 letrec
 lambda
 set!
 }}}

 This should also take care of #18.

Comment(by felix):

 Added syntax + qualified core forms for `if` and `begin' in 06299f3.
