What about a faint background? We could have a page of some
Schumann song in the background; that would show off beautiful
engraving, lyrics, non-ascii lyrics, piano stuff, etc. Instead of
black-on-white, it would be faint-gray-on-white, of course.
Anybody up for this?

That sounds like a good idea; could you give it a shot? I
remember thinking a few years ago that we could probably make
something fancy using \markup { \combine ... }, the graphical
markup commands, and \musicglyph.
It's not something that I'm willing to spend time on, so unless
somebody volunteers to try it, this nice idea will die here.
