i think i could add thread back in and its probably worth the while to do it.

no, these are still there:
subobjects
add-object
insert-object
append-abject
remove-object
list-subobjects
there is the additional advantage in the newer version that you can use all the lisp sequencing fucntions directly on the slot value, that is, the subobjects are now just a regular lisp list of data. this wasnt the case in cm1
