I always use \relative and all people to whom I explained LilyPond, asked why they need this c' or c'' before the music. And if you decide to use the starting pitch (no calculating), like \relative gis' { gis4 … } then they wonder, why the same pitch is needed twice. In short, I like this proposal and after being a bit reluctant about making the new proposed behaviour the default, I would even vote for that (perhaps with a delay, like suggested before).
