I agree that it should do so in some cases, but i don't think it
should do so in all cases.
Generally when two chords are slurred, only one slur is used. The
problem arises when a mix of slurs and ties appear. In your case it
would be best to have the slur attached to the notes that change, but
consider this example:
\version "2.14.1"
\relative c' { \key f \major
<c e g c f> ( <d f bes d f> )
<c e g c f> ( ~ <d f bes d f> )
}
Here only one note is tied and 4 notes are slurred. I'd say that there
should be only one slur for the whole chord in this case.
I think the optimal solution here would be to extend slur syntax so
that slurs could be defined inside chords (like ties):
<c' ~ g' ( e''> <c' a') d''>
