Hi Urs,

Im my work I set almost every beam manually (fiddly and time consuming, but 
worthwhile).

Some useful functions I wrote:

setBeamPos =
#(define-music-function
  (left right)
  (number? number?)
  "Manually set beam position for next group."
  #{
    \once \override Beam.positions = #(cons left right)
  #})

setBeamPosAll =
#(define-music-function
  (left right)
  (number? number?)
  "Manually set beam position for following groups."
  #{
    \override Beam.positions = #(cons left right)
  #})

But how about the beam damping factor that can be set globally? Is that what 
you are seeking? Setting beam.damping globally as follows is useful for when 
you do actually want all flat beams, something I also need a lot:

\override Beam.damping = #+inf.0

I am not sure why your example is flat by default.

Andrew
