New issue 2539 by address@hidden: Redocument/extend tweak
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=2539

I actually don't know how to assign priority for this one and/or how to  
tackle it.  The documentation for \tweak is out of whack with regard to  
applying it to single notes (look at the embarrassing screenshot).  In  
addition, \tweak's internals will gain the power to modify stems, automatic  
beams (manual beams never were a problem) and accidentals directly in the  
course of committing issue 2536.  This is just a matter of missing user  
interface, and the syntax
\tweak Accidental #'color #red cis
can trivially be made available for this (in short, you use an optional  
_string_ to identify the grob).

I think I will extend the \tweak music function in the course of the commit  
implementing the _functionality_ as part of \footnote, including its  
documentation string.  But that still leaves work for the manuals which are  
already out of whack, and my skills for writing user-level documentation  
leave something to be desired.

I might still do a fast push on some changes which correct the facts since  
I think badly written and right beats nicely written and wrong, and  
catching up to nicely written and right might be easier once the facts are  
in place.
