Hi Carl, I'll comment on the bits I feel qualified on: the documentation bits.
It's taken me while following the threads on lilypond-devel and lilypond-user to work out */why/* this has been developed.
The most common use seems to be so you can notate a phrase where notes have varying degrees of articulation or bowing weight, in a similar way that the hairpins show variations in dynamic intensity.
Before seeing this thread, I'd only seen slur/phrasing marks with renditions like dotted or dashed to show added editorial phrasings as distinct from Urtext ones which were inherited from the composer's manuscript.
Is there a slot in the documentation that covers the usage of all this fancy slur-sign stuff (LR NR)?

Dear LilyPond users, I've posted a patch for approval that implements variable thickness dashed and part-dashed, part-solid slurs. I hope it will be fully implemented in 2.13.1. As a preview, here's some slurs that were output by the new code. Please let me know if these are acceptable, or if you'd like to see other changes.
