Ok, I had a little time.

What I came up with is a simple markup command based loosely on some LSR
snippets:

---
\version "2.17.25"

jazzTempoMarkup = #(define-scheme-function (parser location name music 
bpm) (string? ly:music? string?)
  #{ \markup {
       \line {
         #name
         "("
         \score {
           \new Staff \with {
             fontSize = #-4
             \override StaffSymbol #'staff-space = #(magstep -4)
             \override StaffSymbol #'line-count = #0
             \override VerticalAxisGroup #'Y-extent = #'(0 . 0)
           }
           \relative c'' { \jazzOn \stemUp $music }
           \layout {
             ragged-right= ##t
             indent = 0
             \context {
               \Staff
               \remove "Clef_engraver"
               \remove "Time_signature_engraver"
             }
           }
         }
         "="
         #bpm
         ")"
       }
     }
   #})

\score {
  \new Staff {
    \jazzOn
    \mark\jazzTempoMarkup #"Swing" c4 #"120"
    c'4 d' e' f'
  }
}
\score {
   \new Staff {
    \jazzOn
    \mark\jazzTempoMarkup #"Bossa" c2 #"150"
    c'4 d' e' f'
  }
}
\score {
   \new Staff {
    \jazzOn
    \time 6/8
    \mark\jazzTempoMarkup #"Blues" c4. #"60"
    c'4. d' e' f'
  }
}

THis yields in the attached output, which is mostly fine, but dotted
notes seem to carry some unwanted space. Soes anyone know where this
comes from and how it can be avoided?

Thanks,

Marc
