As you may know, Kirill has been working on that in 2006; back then I
had already written the first half of my opera using Sibelius and I
didn't want to LilyPond the whole thing manually -- but that's what I
ended up doing, and it actually proved to be much faster and more
exciting that what I was afraid of.

Anyway, good luck Matthew!
