If the problem that humans can’t fly unassisted can be worked around [by way of 
aircraft], why must we continue to have the problem that humans can’t fly 
unassisted?  ;)

More seriously:

1. Even just adequately defining the problem-space is non-trivial. Feel free to 
shepherd a thread where we do that — I would be happy to contribute!

2. Once the problem-space is adequately defined, someone needs to code the 
changes necessary to make Lilypond “Do The Right Thing™”. This is non-trivial 
in general, and may be even less trivial in this specific case.

But, as is often stated on this list: patch submissions are always welcome!

Best regards,
Kieren.
