Can you define the time signatures to put in parallel with some other
content?
timesigs = {
\time 3/4
\repeat unfold 7 s1*3/4
\time 6/8
\repeat unfold 6 s1*6/8
\time 5/8
}
mynotes = {
\repeat unfold 103 c'8
}
\score {
\new Staff

\timesigs
\mynotes

}
By using s1*<TIME FRACTION> you get a full measure skip.
By using \repeat unfold N, you N measures.
I realize that it is not quite as nice as saying "set the skip at measure
73", but it seems to me to not be that hard.
It would also be not too hard to create a Scheme function that could take
a list of (measure number, time signature) pairs and return something like
the timesigs variable above. This would automate the process and get
almost exactly what you want.
