As I've started tweaking makelsr.py, let's go on until it does The Right 
Thing (tm). Snippets in input/new are added with known people with Git 
access, so I don't see it necessary to check them with "lilypond 
--safe".  Are there any objections with removing this check?  This will 
allow any doc editor or developer to use makelsr.py to "copy" one or 
several snippets from input/new to input/lsr, instead of having to (or 
not doing, or partially doing) manual editing.

It looks like I missed the thread "CG Information on Snippet Handling". 
I'm replying there ASAP.
