New issue 1406 by v.villenave: renaming StreamEvent
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=1406
This issue has been discussed before:
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-devel/2007-07/msg00000.html
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-devel/2009-07/msg00448.html
When looking at the following page, you'll notice that StreamEvent is the
only item that's CamelCased and not hyphenated like a lisp-identifier:
http://lilypond.org/doc/latest/Documentation/internals/music-classes
The obvious fix would be to rename StreamEvent into stream-event in
define-event-classes.scm (i.e. hardcoding the hyphenated name, unlike other
music events that are automatically converted).
However (from what I understand), StreamEvent is not limited to music event
types. Therefore, one could argue that it would be more consistent to drop
the "Event" thing instead, and replace it with "StreamToken"
or "StreamElement" or StreamWhathaveyou.
