Oh yes! as a matter of fact, the whole "\times 2/3" is included in my
\t variable.

Maybe the whole point is that users cannot define their own alias
here. Would it be consistent to make it possible, by removing the
hardcoded \times keyword and creating some ly:make-tuplet-music
function for instance?

... And sorry about the multiple threads, I just have no idea which
one is the *real* one :)
