I just want to obtain the correct beaming behaviour in vocal music (like in 
the sample image i sent) without getting mad beaming and "melismaing" by 
hand.
The rule should simply be "Break beam on every new syllable".
Since lilypond implemented the auto-melisma using dashes in lyrics context, i 
think this little auto-unbeaming rule will improve much output fidelity to 
traditional engraving.

-Traditional scores *always* separate each syllable in beaming
-two syllables *never* are beamed together.
-beaming is used only on the same syllable

Yeah, i said the same thing in 3 different ways.... Now it's clear, i hope ;-)
