It took a while because in the meantime Peter Bjuhr joined efforts,

Gould.
Additional changes:
- change to \fractionList that only returns the stencil
for overriding TimeSignature.stencil.
This makes the function more versatile
(also works when user moved Timing away from the
Score context).
- Issue a compiler warning when the argument doesn't
consist of a list of two-element lists.
One missing thing:
I think the appearance of the hyphen should be configurable but I'm
not sure
about a consistent way to do so.
What I would be able to implement is checking if the user has defined
certain
variables, and if he did use their content to define the appearance.
But I don't
think that's clean design and interface. I would prefer the user doing
some
\override, but I don't know how/if that can be achieved.
But I would not make this feature (i.e. its lack) block the patch.
Well, we have \omit already. What if we had
\appearance [markup] [grobname or music]
Which would basically be the syntactic sugar for overriding the stencil
with an appropriate grob-interpret-markup?
That way one could just define some markup function for formatting time
signatures and use it either in markup contexts or indeed for overriding
a time signature.
