Re: \consists style question

I don’t know if there’s a general preference, and certainly in this case it 
doesn’t matter.

However… If you later add a second Staff to the score, in the first example it 
will NOT include the engraver, and in the second it will. I therefore tend to 
use the first coding style for “special” tweaks (that would not be desireable 
in a “default” version of that context), and the second coding style for 
“default” tweaks (that *would* be desireable in the default version of that 
context).

Hope that helps!
Kieren.
