First of all, could you please email me the note code for "Mars" when you're
done? I'm working on a wicked-cool Lilypond demo, and "Mars" was exactly the
piece I was considering using for the example — if I could leverage your input
effort, it would be greatly appreciated.

I can imagine that, somewhere out there, someone uses (e.g.)
R1*15/16 s16\> s1\!
However, this (IMO) is not a compelling enough reason to avoid implementing my
suggested syntax — we should improve Lilypond to the point where such
non-intuitive code as the above is unnecessary.

Glad to hear!
Cheers,
Kieren.
