Nice idea.
The average user is usually confused with automatic beaming rules
(that is true now but that was already the case for the preceding
beaming system).  Your "show \beaming by example how to do it" idea
could help to set autobeaming rules in a more comprehensive way.

That would be great.
This automatic subdivision beaming feature has been asked regularly
http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2012-01/msg00062.html
(also on the French users mailing list) and it is tracked as issue 2361
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=2361

I can't remember what was Carl's last statement about it though.

Cheers,
Xavier
