This is error prone. In piano music, after, say, seven similar chords it suddenly happens that single note differs. > Yet another alternative is to let LilyPond do the job, either using > simple techniques like \repeat unfold {....} or Scheme based > solutions like http://lsr.dsi.unimi.it/LSR/Item?id=390, > http://lsr.dsi.unimi.it/LSR/Item?id=390 or > http://lsr.dsi.unimi.it/LSR/Item?id=346. IMHO, this is visually unattractive while reading a lilypond source and takes far too much time to enter. I really can't understand why there is so much resistance to a one-letter chord repeat item -- ideally an unused letter like `q' or another ascii character (as the proposed `&').
