Hi!

Since one can include a whole \score inside a \markup , we can define
a special \tempo \markup whith a customized score inside.

@James:
I started from a Staff because I do not think it is possible to put
notes elsewhere than _on_ the line within RhythmicStaff (i.e. not just
below or above, like in the picture).


rhythmicMark =
  \once \override Score.MetronomeMark #'break-align-symbols = #'(clef)
\tempo \markup {
  \score {
    \new Staff \with {
      drumStyleTable = #percussion-style
      \override StaffSymbol #'line-count = #1
      \override BarLine #'bar-size = #3
      \override Clef #'stencil = ##f
    } {
      \relative b' {
        \time 9/8
        \set Timing.beatStructure = #'(2 2 2 3)
        a8 c a8 c a8 c a8 c c
      }
    }
    \layout {
      #(layout-set-staff-size 14)
    }
  }
}


\score {
  <<
    \new Staff {
      \relative f' {
        \key f \minor
        \time 9/8
        \set Timing.beatStructure = #'(2 2 2 3)
        \rhythmicMark
        r8 c8 f aes c c bes4 aes8
      }
    }
  >>
}


Cheers,
Xavier
