New issue 955 by percival.music.ca: editing notes / tweaks in a separate  
file
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=955

It would be neat if we could put tweaks (especially overrides to fix
collisions) in a separate file.  The basic idea is like a separate
style-sheet, but instead of only contains
    \layout{ \context ... }
it might have stuff like
    avoidCollisions = {
        #'(ly:make-moment 15 4)
        \override Beam #'extra-offset (0 . 2)
        #'(ly:make-moment 3 2)
        \override Fingering #'extra-offset (0 . 4)
    }


This idea isn't very well thought-out, but I've mused about this in the
past.  More info here:

If this is already possible, then consider this feature request as a
documentation and/or syntactic sugar  request.
