I could see where this could be useful when sharing Lilypond files. Since we don't all use the same language setting things can get a bit confusing.
But it seems like this should be something that one's editor does. Like I type my Lilypond file as I normally do it and then hit "M-x lilypond-beautify" which will then convert all the "cs"s to "c#"s etc. And then when you get that file it will convert it back to your language? So a metafile thingie? Probably more work than it's worth, but, you know.
