That's a very interesting idea! Durations need to be specified outside the chord, of course, so that's not a concern. OTOH, what about doing something like this: c\maj c\dim c\chord #'(1 4 5) c\chord #'(1 3 5 7 11) If somebody used a lot of special chords, they could define their own identifiers to replace the \chord functions.
