There is a need of a more general beaming pattern selection scheme.
To be picky, this is a problem about subdivided beams, not the
main beams.
From what I can see, one needs to create a general trees structure,
as generated by "+" and parenthesizes. Then these can have different
renderings in the output using bars, space breaks and beaming. The
difference between a meter pattern and others, is that it covers a
whole measure, or possibly a sequences of measure.
Then the basis for writing a time signature is that one chooses a
refinement of such a structure, and writes it out.
Anyway, it's true that something this complicated would require
some scheme programming.
Since I do not do Scheme, I thought if using Haskell to write
LilyPond code.
But in the description above, given a music line, one needs to find
suitable applicable patterns, as described above. LilyPond has that,
but not the means of describing the general iterated structures I
described above.
