I wrote too tersely, it is not the "symbols" bit rather the "compact" bit I was referring to here. LilyPond only supports arranging the elements of a chord symbol (Root Name, attributes, bass-inversion) in a fixed way, taking up an elegant amount of space between these parts. For a compact chord symbol (for display on a hand-held device) these need to be arranged to take up less horizontal space. The patch currently waiting to "make it into LilyPond" does that. You as a user still need to decide whether you want -7 or 7- or whatever for the attributes by writing chord-exceptions.
