Not at all I think, but coming up with a reasonably quality convert-ly rule for it would be quite hard. The slur conversion happened at a time where the standards expected from convert-ly where much lower and the possibly affected amount of LilyPond files in circulation was much lower. > My expectation is that the hardest part about it might be getting an > effective convert-ly rule.
