Excellent point. I’m sure it’s a pie-in-the-sky thought… but…

Is there a way, in your [wonderful] list of _all_ properties, to have Lily 
automatically say which will have an effect?
Or is that as simple as “adjusting a property will have an effect if and only 
if it’s listed on the grob’s ‘homepage’ in the IR”?

Thanks,
Kieren.
