Of course it should. But how to do so is somewhere between "extremely 
complicated" and "impossible", and nobody has decided to take on the 
programming project to date. We are fortunate it works as well as it does, due 
to the efforts of some wonderful volunteer programmers.

I use the edition-engraver, because those kinds of markups are part of the 
presentation layer (not the content layer).

Hope that helps!
Kieren.

Apart from the " Scores of Beauty" entry about partially compiling scores and 
some posts regrading errors about edition-engraver, I didn't find any relevant 
info on how to use it and how to get it. Both readme pages on it and 
openlilylib don't tell anything and openlilylib's website is just a skeleton.
