It is absolutely out of the question. I am not, NEVER going to add
macros to lilypond. They make a complete mess of a nice language, and
if you don't believe me, go read LaTeX definition files, or try to
make heads and tails of what's written in chapter 20 of the TeX book.

I mean, if Donald Knuth manages to make a macro language into
something unintelligible, how do you suppose that a mere mortal like
me is ever going to make something clean out of it?

This decision is final. If you want parametrisation, learn Scheme.
