Well, to get started you could do copy the properties of "." to the new
operator -- something like

  :lisp (setf (symbol-plist '$foo) (copy-tree (symbol-plist 'mnctimes)))

Doubtless there is some tinkering to do after that. 

I agree that's a useful and interesting thing to do -- too bad there
isn't any way to do it (short of Lisp hacking).
