Description

Reason for that is whidbey, which needs to pass :nrepl-context to REPLy to work correctly. Here is the link to IRC chat discussing this problem. It's desirable to have some way of doing that from .profile.boot. :)

Contributor guide

Research direction
Investigate how boot currently launches REPLy and where configuration options are passed. Look into the boot.core and boot.repl namespaces for relevant code. Then devise a way to extend the configuration map passed to REPLy, possibly via a hook or profile option.
