This is error prone.  In piano music, after, say, seven similar chords
it suddenly happens that single note differs.

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 `&').
