Hmm, quite a battle to get that I see! In fact your code does something
extra-fancy compared with the commonplace examples I see in old prints,
namely the tuplet number cuts into the slur. Typically the tuplet number
is inside the slur, which happened by default in LilyPond once I set the
direction. I was hoping it might be possible just to set the tuplet
number direction to be the same as a slur would be - I don't mind adding
the slur manually.
