Well, in this case, I consider it broken.  Generally users don't know
the proper order of voice arranging commands and of
<< ... \\ ... \\ ..... >>.

While I probably don't count as a frequent enough user, even I got the
order wrong in this discussion (telling Werner that it was inner-first).
That's a rather bad sign.

Now _you_ have actually built a creative workflow around LilyPond's
current order and thus gave it more sense than it inherently has.  And
if we change its behavior, you'll very likely get a command for invoking
the current one.  We sort of owe you at least that much.  But at the
same time I think we owe newcomers a default behavior which makes it
easier for them to get things right without creating their own workflow
around them.
