I find the metaphor slightly too strong, since I think the ‘cure’ is
merely in devising an intuitive input method. IMO it should take the
text in order as input and rearrange it into one \markup \column {} per
(syllable*repeat number), _and_ place brackets at the beginning and end
of repeats as required. I’d love to have time for writing such a music
function[1]…

[1] the bracket part is more complicated, since the closing brackets
would actually require something like ‘afterStanza’, if you get what I mean…
