How often are you expected to write this?

I wouldn't. Other key-list uses don't. The symbol #{1}# is more of a
curiosity than anything one wants to use regularly. Basically, I would
change spanner-id to be a key (which does not include symbols). This
would be a deliberate incompatibility and would mean using eqv (or
ly_is_equal) for comparing spanner id's instead of string comparison.
The spanner-id role of "" would be likely be taken over by the default
'() value.
