One concrete proposal of Graham has been cut out in this thread, namely 
that there should be no need to specify the two first arguments, parser 
and location. As far as I understand, it should be trivial to make a 
version of define-music-function where the user doesn't have to add 
these arguments manually, so the syntax is

#(new-define-music-function (arg1 arg2 ... ) (typecheck1 typecheck2 ... )
 #{    ordinary LilyPond code using $arg1 $arg2 ...  #}
}
