Yes. Yes. Yes.
And IMO the **VALIDATION** is the worst part: I don't mind taking the few 
seconds to type the tweak for a slur, but when I'm working on a big score 
(e.g., on of my operas or musicals), it is incredibly painful to have to wait 
several minutes in order to see the result (especially if it didn't work for 
some reason, so that I have to do it again).

And I'm a Lilypond evangelist.  =(

Cheers,
Kieren.
