Hand editors of the LilyPond output that is.

It turns out that if you use

\set Score.timing = ##f
\override Staff.TimeSignature #'stencil = ##f

and the insert \bar "|" wherever you want a barline you can create the
sort of thing Nils was asking for last year. If you don't put a bar line
in at all then eventually LilyPond seems to get stuck as it doesn't
break lines except at barlines (it seems). Also, you may need to take
control of the beaming yourself.
It might be an idea to paint the auto-barlines that Denemo generates in
light gray (as you cannot edit them) and the give | as the display for
\bar "|", an editable bar line.
