I also think that \= looks better, because a) what we're doing is *assigning* an id (at least from a user's perspective) b) \- looks more like a misspelled -\ (as in -\markup) and thus somewhat confusing. This is indeed very exiting "news" - and the fact that a new interface seems necessary to make that option known is indeed interesting. Is the request for making it possible to have an "id"ed slur/spanner go to another voice/staff related to that issue or is it technically a different thing?
