You mean something like generic-cl? https://github.com/alex-gutev/generic-cl

Adding new types and operators to Lisp
If performance is not a concern, then you can create CLOS classes corresponding to vec3 or mat44, and dispatch the appropriate functions from the generic-cl project by specializing on them.

Emacs-like editors written in Common Lisp
> And Lisp is almost uniquely able to handle transitions to later standards as I described above. You don't actually have to forfeit backwards compatibility entirely or at all if the changes are handled by moving to a new default base package. :cl-user/:cl become :cl##-user/:cl##
Go use cl21[0] if you care for this sort of thing.

generic-cl[1]. But in a prefix-oriented language, I just don't see this as particularly important.

You do[2]; this is one of the notable deficiencies in the cl standard that really bites, today. It is being worked on.

alex-gutev/cl-form-types - Library for determining the types of Common Lisp forms based on information stored in the environment.
Thanks for sharing. I'm planning to use it in static-dispatch to further optimize generic function calls in generic-cl. It's also used in the lisp-polymorph project, work in progress not yet completed, which aims to provide an extensible generic interface, though not based on generic functions, to functions in the Common Lisp standard, like generic-cl however built from the ground up with performance and optimization and performance in mind.

Static-Dispatch 0.5: Improved inlining on SBCL and performance improvements for generic-cl
Release 0.5 adds a specialized implementation for SBCL which leverages the compiler's type inference engine, using DEFTRANSFORM, to allow for generic function inlining in a much broader range of scenarios. Any generic function call for which the types of the arguments can be determined by SBCL, can now be inlined by static-dispatch. This means even generic function calls with arguments consisting of complex expressions can be inlined. This also provides a performance boost for generic-cl where theoretically on SBCL, generic-cl:= should be equivalent in performance to cl:= in most cases where the type of the argument can be vaguely inferred by SBCL.
