Well, we're not there yet, obviously. Especially tempo, dynamics
and certain repeats (Capo/Coda/Fine) are/can only be kludged, which
worries me a lot more than the settings in the paper block. If you
actually want to print the music, you'll need to define certain
things. Most of these commands are well separated from the 'musical
content' definition?

Sounds good. Do you want to work on that?
