No, this is only the code for tweaking unbroken slurs (i.e. slurs that
don't cross a line break).  I knew about it and tried to modify it
using example from Extending 2.6
(http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.15/Documentation/extending/difficult-tweaks),
but failed very soon.
Frankly, i think this function (i mean the extended version by Dmytro,
which allows for easy tweaking of both broken and unbroken slurs) is
essential for producing good-looking Lily scores that contain broken
slurs.  I don't understand how it's possible to reasonably work with
broken slurs, given the fact that they are quite often imperfect,
without this function...

cheers,
