Sorry, I didn't read the mail subject carefully enough. Searching the mailing list archives, I realize that you were involved in the original discussion about the design of the symbol. May I remind you of Han-Wen's comment in http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2003-05/msg00283.html Also, it's better to send feature requests or bug reports (whatever you want to call your email) to bug-lilypond or lilypond-devel, once you have found a scanned example that can convince the LilyPond hackers.

Just to avoid any risk of confusion, I hope that you have seen the caesura already available in LilyPond:
\override BreathingSign #'text = #(make-musicglyph-markup "scripts-caesura") es8[ d] \breathe es[ f g f] |
This is taken from the example breathing-sign.ly in the Regression Tests document.
Yes. Thanks. I have used it and it certainly got the job done. I presume it had some logical reason derived from the other slight variation for ancient music. Actually the modern use looks like it is probably directly derived from the ancient meaning.
It's just that all the printed music I have ever seen uses the form I am describing and since I use it quite a bit it's worth giving my input.
Thanks,
Paul
