I like ';' very much (mostly because it feels familiar when you're
used to ':' ).

Speaking of which, I often wished we had a cool shortcut for writing
repeats using a postfix syntax, e.g.
{ large music expression here };4
instead of
\repeat unfold 4 { large music expression }

Yes I know: a) that's off-topic b) this will wait until GLISS starts.
