Unfortunately, that’s a long way still, since there are grave issues 
with \shapeII (see the openlilylib issue tracker). On one hand, I 
imagine that building it in the LilyPond core (C++ slur code !) would be 
a route to solve them, but that’s also a quite advanced task, it would 
seem. Though I agree that much would be gained!
