Come to think of it, this form of \with is superfluous. It is possible
to write it with something like
\apply #(nest-props '((Stem thickness 4) (Slur transparent #t)))
{ .. }
where nest-props takes care of pre- and appending the appropriate
settings.
In the meantime, I've come up with a more logical syntax. We can
change current
\translator Staff = up
to
\switch Staff = up
and then we use
\translator Staff = up {
\consists ".."
Stem \override #'thickness = #4
Slur \override #'transparent = ##t
} ..music..
this more consistent with the current sytnax within the \paper block,
and it also fixes the stupid syntax for staff switches.
