It's not precise enough for piano music. In most situations, ties
should follow voices, and only in some specific situations an
inter-voice ties is needed.
IMHO the ideal solution would be to extend the `\=' syntax to cover
inter-voice slurs, e.g.,
\relative c' {
\clef "bass"
\time 3/4
<< { <g b>2. \=1~ } \\
{ f4 e2 \=1~ } \\
{ d!2. \=1~ } >>
<d e g b>2.\@1
}
`\@' is my ad-hoc suggestion to identify a chord (or whatever) as a
receiver of the corresponding tag.
