Sure, no problem. I my workflow the lilypond command that Frescobaldi uses
is a script that does some things before passing control to the 'real'
lilypond program.

But I could ask a different question.

On paper, we all write Am to designate an A-minor chord. However, in
LilyPond we write a:min. I haven't heard much complaints about this lately.

So what is the big deal to write c:sus4 when you want to designate your
flavour of Csus?
