Comment #29 on issue 1110 by address@hidden: Wrong octave of repetition chord  
with \relative and #{ #} syntax
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=1110

Concerning comment #27: I was not complaining, and I have not claimed  
ownership of this issue anyway.  There is not much enthusiasm by others to  
pick it up, and there is not much enthusiasm on my side to pick it up  
before I get other things tackled since I don't particular like this  
feature, and the difficulty of actually determining how to make it behave  
usefully in different contexts, as witnessed by a stream of problem reports  
of which this is only the last in a sequence, gives some clue why this is  
one feature for which it is much easier to hack a "proof of concept" rather  
than to get something working reliably and predictably.  I don't  
consider "have a totally different implementation and definition when  
\relative is used" sane semantics, but I don't see a sensible way around  
this except scrapping everything and reimplementing at a fundamentally  
different level.

As to it becoming a "properly documented part", it would seem comment #28  
addresses this:

Issue 2137 "NR improve 'visibility' of 'q'" is not actually allaying any  
documentation concerns of this issue.  It will likely cause additional  
influx of reports for issue 1110, however.
