clear that flat slurs can save lots of vertical space.

Butt-ugly.  There really is no need to almost touch the first and last
note when the slur passes other notes with lots more clearance anyway.

This example would really better be done by much less overall curveage.

As hinted I didn't bother beautifying this very much. In particular I didn't bother changing the anchor points from what Lily decided for the regular slur.

The examples from Durand and Henle

show the use case for flat slurs better.

Henle (done with Finale) doesn't have flat slurs so the staves are unnecessarily pushed apart
