Hello Knute,

Interesting approach! I've not seen this before. The solution gives you
precise control on the slur shape.

The problem with this approach is that it is imperative (you have to
manually specify the coordinates of control points in every situation),
quite verbose and explodes in complexity when chords are involved.

I'm looking for more declarative approach in the style of not yet existing
\repeatSlur

Thank you for your suggestion,
Vlad
