To those suggestions let me answer with the famous answer to the
question "Mr Gandhi, what do you think of Western civilization?", namely
with "I would consider it a good idea."

Had Gandhi been a programmer, his answer might have been "Patches
welcome."  The long and the short answer is that I would not know where
to start.  I have not actually considered the documentation, and I don't
even know whether doing so would not interfere with issue 2858
<URL:http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=2858> which is
currently on hold due to this pending issue.  So the best I think I can
do at the moment is to crosslink your suggestion to issue 2858 (which is
about documenting \shape) and see how and when and where Trevor thinks
it should be incorporated.
