That's not really the main point.  It would have been simple previously
to make \tweak be equivalent to \override rather than \once \override
when used on symbol lists.

\tweak syntax for overrides is not really pretty, but it makes it easy
to implement mixed tweaks/overrides like \hide or \omit.  But there are
some changes which only make sense as a \once\override or a \tweak (like
footnotes), and now one can write \once\tweak without a problem, even
when it turns out \tweak is being indeed used as a \tweak and not as an
\override.

It's not really an advertisable feature: it's just making several tools
fit the same handle for convenience, but it's not like the resulting
look is particularly elegant.
