Meanwhile David Nalesnik came up with a better function.
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2015-05/msg00834.html

I'd put the function in some "custom-functions.ily" file and include
it if needed/wanted via \include "custom-functions.ily"
You may need to set the include-path as appropiate.


Don't put it in internal files, it will be overridden and lost with
next upgrade.
