For instance, 6/8 timing could be thought of as "1 2 3 / 4 5 6" or "1
2
/ 3 4 / 5 6".
I disagree.
"1 2 / 3 4 / 5 6" feels like 3/4. No matter what is actual printed.
Of course it would feel like 3/4. 3/4 is simply "1 2 3" but "1 + 2 + 3
+" if we count the ANDs. 3/4 and 6/8 are the same rational value so
it's not surprising to see overlap. Things get more interesting,
however, when you have songs that are in 6/8 but have a 4/4 feel due to
use of dotted eighths. Or would that be 4/(5 1/3)? ;-)
Though, I think it clutters the input. (And returns inconsistent
results for \partial, although this would be not too had to fix.)
Oops, didn't think about that case. I guess I was just happy that
tuplets worked providing you do the math and specify the correct
rational number. But I wouldn't doubt that more interesting music would
exhibit odd behavior because I oversimplified something.
Below my own attempt using an engraver (to have access to the
'timeSignatureFraction, a context-property, and to Stem/NoteHead-grobs
in one go).

That is definitely something I will have to review in detail, as I have
not yet worked with engravers and contexts obviously still have a lot to
learn.
