Re: Tremolo positioning

[Juergen Reuter]

Please note that the property name "style" currently (hopefully) 
consistently denotes _font_ style.  It is defined with this meaning for 
noteheads, rests, accidentals, time signatures, flags, and custos.

Nowadays, that Lily supports subproperties (cp. manual Sect. 9.1.4 or 
9.2.1), maybe, on the long term, the property "style" should be split into 
subproperties "font" and "shape" or similar?  Then you could use 
subproperty "shape" of property "style" for stem tremolos.  I _really_ 
would prefer to keep the naming of properties as consistent as possible.

Greetings,
Juergen
