Well, I allready did some brain storming how I could do something like that.
I would try to create some music function which does the preparation of the
task 'how to put the different sections of music together. And finally I
need to filter by tags (#'Part #'Score #'Midi) the resulting music snippet
in each staff.
Unfortunately for you, I have to do a lot of other staff with higher
priority to me, before I will work on this and (hopefully with success)
finally make a LSR contribution.
