I added it precisely to un-silently prevent negative numbers.
It's true that it has no analogue in Scheme, but I didn't think this was a 
prerequisite for adding a predicate.  In lily.scm, there are several predicates 
that don't have Scheme analogues (cheap-list, I believe, has no Scheme 
counterpart).

Will do.
If anyone feels like taking this on, please do - I have a few hard deadlines 
coming up and my lily development will be minimal for the next month-ish.  
Writing vertical-skyline approximations is not that bad - just use the slur 
model as a template and move code around to avoid duplication (for example, in 
the tuplet case, you'd want to change Tuplet_bracket::make_bracket to spit out 
a list of stencils and then harvest the boxes from the bounding boxes of the 
stencils in this list - then, move whatever logic is needed before calling 
Tuplet_bracket::make_bracket to a different callback that can be used by both 
the print callback and the vertical skylines callback).

Cheers,
MS
