So, \tuplet y/x with the exact meaning of \times x/y is less confusing
because it's not "times" vs "time" anymore, and the straightforward
fraction is just "music without the maths". So, I predict a widespread
adoption.

Do we really need to use the same fraction notation, though?  I
mean, in music we see 3:2 (if people are being pedantic).  I'd be
much happier with
 \tuplet 3:2 { }
meaning the same thing as
 \times 2/3 { }

I think I like this idea.
