I was mistaken ... it *is* possible to extend the syntax (which seems
completely reasonable, in retrospect).  I've borrowed (and stretched) the
compound-time-signature snippet as follows:

Is it possible to express time signatures so that the denominator is an
(arbitrary) _note_, as used in e.g. Orff and other contemporary
composers?  e.g. 3/8 displaying as a 3 over an eighth-note/quaver.
