Who says that's not already possible? ;-)

It's all SVG. Given that the canvas music notation source will be published, it 
would probably also not be hard to use that - either directly in Dan's Lively 
Canvas version or as a canvas element embedded in the SVG DOM. But I think for 
this particular application SVG is the better choice.

What's missing, of course, is support to assemble the notation. You can 
currently just drag and drop those objects. Maybe some simple language could be 
used for that or maybe there are even better ways, like playing and "recording" 
with a piano -- I leave that for you :-)

Best,
Robert
