Yes, I think that's right. It has been mentioned before, but before
doing it I would like to be sure that LilyPond has the capabilities to
do what you need. Many years ago it was reported back to me that
LilyPond only had an outline of the needed stuff - unless LilyPond can
actually generate what you want we would be wasting time.

so can you use that documentation to create a LilyPond file that
typesets a (short but with all the features) piece as you would want it?
Hopefully, it should be easy for me to create input routines to generate
what you want.
