Looks like it might be.

Thanks. I believe the 'conditional-kill-lyric-extender-callback' does exactly 
what I want. Looking forward to seeing this functionality make it into the 
codebase.

Cheers,
Kieren.

Hi Kieren,

without looking at your snippet any closer (don't have Lily available 
right here, right now): please see


https://sourceforge.net/p/testlilyissues/issues/4509/
https://codereview.appspot.com/313240043

This aims to be a full-stop solution to extender handling that most 
probably offers a superset of your proposal, thanks to Knut's hard work. 
Unfortunately, while the code is working, there are implications w.r.t. 
long-term maintainability of the feature and impact to clean backend 
design. David K. has (very valid) concerns there, and has it on his 
todo-list - but as you know, the time he can and should devote is fairly 
limited these days.


For a very easy-to-use, no-compile-time-patches-needed workaround that 
still offers plenty of automation and functionality, see the 
autoextenders.ily from

  http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2016-12/msg00536.html
(I hope I pointed you to the last version).


HTH,
Alex

Hello all,

Any thoughts/discussion towards putting this in the codebase would be 
appreciated. Happy to shepherd it myself, if it's just a matter of adding this

Thanks,
