I thought that was the point under discussion.  It's in the manual here:
   
http://lilypond.org/doc/v2.18/Documentation/notation/displaying-chords#printing-chord-names

In the second chunk of example code, there's music entered like <c e g>2
and LilyPond assigning chord names to it.

If that's not what was being discussed, I'd better go back to lurking.
