But I think I prefer the following which has a consistent parallel
structure across all the categories and where the new style of whiteout
is named in a way that conveys that it is the default, with the old box
style getting a more specialized name. This requires convert-ly rules
and for users to learn the new names, but I think it's worth it.
Grob Properties:
whiteout (new style, T/F or numbers)
whiteout-box (old style, T/F, could allow numbers for padding)
Markup functions:
\whiteout (new style)
\whiteout-box (old style)
SCM Functions:
stencil-whiteout (new style)
stencil-whiteout-box (old style, optional number arg for padding)
Convert-ly:
markups: \whiteout --> \whiteout-box
grob properties: whiteout --> whiteout-box
(Hmmm... seems a convert-ly rule that would replace all "whiteout" with
"whiteout-box" would do the trick here for grob properties, markup
functions, and scm functions.)
