Comment(by felix):

 I have changed the symbol reader [experimental 55ad083] to allow the
 following:

 {{{
   (symbol->string '|abc def|)       =>   "abc def"
   (symbol->string '|abc||def|)      =>   "abcdef"
   (symbol->string '|abc|xyz|def|)   =>   "abcxyzdef"
   (symbol->string '|abc\|def|)      =>   "abc|def"
   (symbol->string 'abc\ def)        =>   "abc def"
 }}}

 `|abc:|` and `|abc|:` both will return a keyword. Is this acceptable?
