that's how it works right now - but since LilyPond is able to tell what goes
to the graphical or sound output I don't see why I have to specify where it
goes myself!?

maybe the terms \layout and \midi should then be summarized in something
more neutral like \settings or \migr (for *mi*di and *gr*aphics)
