There is essentially no different in going frmo
  \override Stem #'length = #5
to
  \override Stem #'Y-extent = #5

as far as users are concerned, that would be much better than
  \override Stem #'Y-extent = #(stem::length 5)

as far as I'm concerned... I've never even seen a (foo::bar x)
command before!  If we could still use #5, that would be
preferred.
