Comment #8 on issue 2858 by address@hidden: Document \shape music function
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=2858

"The only misgiving I have is the way the grob name follows the sometimes-rather-long offset"... Come to think of it: why switch the order of arguments in the first place? When used as a \tweak, it will be applied to slurs, ties and similarly brief stuff.
\shape ( #'(...........................)
or even
\shape \laissezVibrer #'(............................)
seems quite tolerable. The reason to stick music arguments at the end is that music arguments tend to be long (which is not the case here) and that often one wants to apply multiple functions with arguments ona music expression. Ok, something like \shape \tweak #'color #red \laissezVibrer #'(........................) is unnice, but one can write \tweak #'color #red \shape \laissezVibrer #'(........................) instead.

Hm, only half convinced, but it would save writing a convert-ly rule.
