New issue 1033 by v.villenave: Documentation: \new Score must die
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=1033

Although officially discouraged, the \new Score syntax is still used in
several places, particularly in the regtests and the documentation:
http://git.savannah.gnu.org/gitweb/?p=lilypond.git&a=search&h=HEAD&st=grep&s=%5Cnew+Score

It would be nice to get rid of it altogether. In some places it isn't
required at all, in other places where it is used with \with{}, it could
easily be replaced with \layout { \context { \Score }}}...

Plus, Neil pointed out that \with blocks disrupt snippet formatting.

I don't know who can do it, but it's a fairly simple task, e.g. for a
documentation helper.  Feel free to contact me if you have doubts.
