I think the slash chord is used to specify an additional note to be played
with the normal chord. C/A would mean to play the C chord but at the same
time play an A in the base region.
Question:
Since an e or d can be specified just as notes, is the desire to have a /e
or /d simply to keep the focus on the base part of a tune whether dealing
with chords or notes?

...I like this. I'm just not sure that I like it for the same thing that
Laurie does. I quite often want to put in little bass lines as
transitions between chords. Assuming the '/' mechanism is for
specifying the bass note of a chord it seems to me to make sense
to be able to write:
"G/g" "/f#" "/e" "/d"
(or something similar depending on what exact rules we end up
with for case & accidental).
