I think what we currently cover in the Extending Manual is limited to an 
essential number of examples to cover the foundation of Scheme usage in 
common cases. This seems like a useful snippet, but in a more rare 
situation, so I wouldn’t think the manual is the right place…

By the way, I happened to see that section 1.3.4 of the Extending Manual 
sets off on the fact that it’s not possible to attach articulations to 
variables (“We know that `{ \music -. -> }' will not work in LilyPond”). 
So when that changes in future versions, this will need to be rewritten.

Best, Simon
