That's why I like to differentiate between inputting and tweaking. Inputting is probably much, much faster using the keyboard. As LilyPond grows more mature, the idea is that the number of tweaks necessary goes down. I'm quite happy that users still choose to us LilyPond even if for many production quality scores tweaks are still needed. I'm still not sure what the ideal way of inputting and tweaking would look like. The nice thing about text-based tweaks as compared to GUI-based tweaks, is that text-based tweaks can be saved, documented, reused, shared and improved; whereas GUI tweaks often can't.
