You can add it wherever you want.  I don't see it making any sense as an
addition to LilyPond proper as it is a rather special use case.  It may
still be nice as a snippet as it is simple, flexible, and powerful.  The
use cases also show \tweak as an internal workhorse for both tweaks and
overrides.

As a snippet, it makes sense _in_ 2.18 as it illustrates current
programming techniques.
