the one about tripletizing a selection? It's an ok idea I think - one of
thousands such - a few lines of scheme would do it, but it will have to
take the fancy of someone who can write those few lines. What does need
thinking about is how we can cope with the increasing number of commands
- I already find it difficult sometimes to locate a command, and I know
it exists, which is a great advantage.
At the moment I am working on title pages (involving include files in
the LilyPond output), this work would then benefit accordion shifts...
it's a vast world out there :)

If the bug you mentioned is not fixed perhaps you could submit a bug
report?
