Better would be to write a command for Denemo that adds the
mutopia-required headers. A more serious problem would be Denemo users
who have no understanding of the LilyPond output, they will not be using
the \repeat { ..... } format as it requires placing the first part of
the construct at a place where nothing may appear in the typeset file
(e.g. at the beginning). 
So they will generate LilyPond files with 

\set Score.repeatCommands = #'((volta "1")) 

and such like, which make reading the LilyPond output harder. I don't
think there would be a practical way round that.
