I think Kieren is probably thinking about something like:

\version "2.19.38"

\book {
    \header { tagline = ##f }
    \relative c' {
        \footnote #'(-1 . 3) \markup {
          \fill-line {
           " " \score { c' }
                \score { d' }
                \score { e' } " "
  }
}
        c4
        d4
        r4
        e4
    }
}

where the “text” of the footnote is the markup.
