Don't forget that the \score{...} construct also is used to group
\layout and
\midi declarations to a specific score, which cannot currently be done
using a \new Score construct.

Another thing that frequenty confuse new users is the \score-statement

It also confuses me, btw.
I know that the \score-statement is a syntactical construct, but I
think it would be nice to hide this fact from the users.
I think we could make the use of score-block much more intuitive if
changing the syntax to \new \Score and adding an implicit
sequential-statement to the score.
Perhaps we could even expand the idea of having different contexts
using different default parsing modes. Having the body of \new
ChordNames automatically being parsed in chords-mode would be quite
nice, imo.
This is probably a quite major change, though. But what do you think?
