After some research, it seems edition engraver only _pretends_ to insert arbitrary objects - it actually only supports a select few types of objects. Not including \tempo and \time. \time can be worked around rather easily (see snippet below), but for \tempo, it seems I'd have to modify the

Hi there, yes the edition-engraver does not able to insert time and tempo. I decided not to include \time, because it would mess with the timing and therefore with addressing elements in time. \tempo is just not implemented (yet). So if you can provide a reasonable pull request I will be

I didn't notice any timing problems with \time. Of course, if you use it to add a time signature somewhere weird it gets broken, but that happens with inserting random time signatures in the source as well. If used responsibly, it works fine. My \tempo patch seems to work (needs some more
