mudela syntax question

[Tom Cato Amundsen]

GNU Solfege will be using a language very similar (but very
limited compared to) mudela to play and display music. I have
been rewriting parts of the parser this weekend to add support
for beams and get better output.

When combining chords and beams, Lilypond support both
  < [ c8 e> f]     % really \simultaneous{ [c8 e} f]
and
  [ <c8 e> f]      % really [ \simultaneous{c8 e} f]

I guess the last is the preferred, it is easier to read. Are the
first example just something that happens to work, or are both
equal good mudela? (hm, maybe mudela is "whatever works for lily"...)
