After a lot of soul-searching and adding a few more tests, I've decided that the way Hy does quasiquotation is correct, or at least, correct enough.
I was pointed to a pretty thorough test suite of quasiquotation in Common Lisp, but translating it to Hy looks intimidating, so I'm not going to take that on before I'm convinced that we need even more tests than what I've added here.
