One could have the same convert-ly rule twice: First time for the version where a new feature is introduced and it’s *possible and recommended* to use it. Second time for the version where the old feature (and thus backward compatibility) is removed and you *have to* use it.

F. e. if the \override syntax

        \override Staff.TimeSignature #'color = #red

is removed some day IMO one would have to add the convert-ly rule that turns it to

        \override Staff.TimeSignature.color = #red

again because many people still use the old syntax that they find in old code.
