Comment #31 on issue 1110 by plros...@gmail.com: Wrong octave of repetition chord with \relative and #{ #} syntax
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=1110

I'm not so knowledgeable in Lilypond internals but let me try to understand the dilemma in simple terms. I want "q" to emit the same set of pitches as the last chord did. That must be something closer to the output side because we want the actual pitches, not the input.

I guess the example with two voices shows the case when the last chord before "q" wasn't processed because it happens after "q". I'm absolutely fine with Lilypond showing an error in this case. It's a forward reference.

In my opinion, not supporting "q" in some corner cases is acceptable. Producing wrong output silently is not. Writing out a chord is an easy task for the fingers. Proofreading scores is a costly task for the eyes.
