It also doesn’t make sense to feed a self-fueling spiral of wider 
non-acceptance by actively avoiding the use of a tool as game-changing as the 
edition-engraver. Instead, why not download it (from OLL), try it out, and — if 
it proves as beneficial to you as it is to some of us — help try to get it 
polished and accepted into the standard Lilypond distro?

Just a “glass half-full” thought amongst this mostly “glass half-empty” thread.

Cheers,
Kieren.
