It doesn't do what you asked for, namely setting the tempo in relation
to the _current_ tempo rather than some fixed tempo.

That makes it simpler because it does not need to reference the current
tempo.  If its operation better suits your purposes, that's fine.
However, you shouldn't be mixing both approaches since Mark's solution
_rounds_ the tempo (and \tempo will only accept integers, so using
\tempo basically requires this), so the resulting tempo is nothing you
should use as a reference for further changes.

In particular, you can alternatively multiply and divide
tempoWholesPerMinute by #e1.1 (an "exact" number) and arrive at the
original value.
