Yes, you captured my intent correctly. Will fix it.

I do not have a large scheme codebase on my own, I usually use Racket,
which is a much larger language with many more forms. Other Schemes like
Guile also extend the language a lot, like in your example, eval-when is
an extension provided by Guile (and Chicken and Chez), but not a part of
the R6RS document when I searched its index.
So the 'define' forms are the only one that I know would reliably be present
across all schemes. But one can also make a case where some of these non-standard
forms may be common enough that they are worth adding in. In that case which
forms to include? Should we consider everything in the SRFI's[1]? Should the
various module definitions of Racket be included? It's a little tricky to know
where to stop.
That being said, I will try to run this through more Scheme codebases that I can
find and see if there are any forms that seem to show up commonly enough that they
are worth including.
