As others have pointed out, we [the community] need to step up and fill that
gap.

Here’s something I’ve been using:
\version "2.17"
tsModern =
#(define-music-function
(parser location dur)
(ly:duration?)
#{
\once \override Staff.TimeSignature #'stencil = #ly:text-interface::print
\once \override Staff.TimeSignature #'text =
\markup \override #'(baseline-skip . 0.5) \center-column {
\number #(number->string (car (ly:duration-factor dur)))
\note-by-number #(ly:duration-log dur) #(ly:duration-dot-count dur)
#DOWN }
\time #(cons (ly:moment-main-numerator (ly:duration-length dur))
(ly:moment-main-denominator (ly:duration-length dur)))
#})
theMusic = {
\tsModern 16.*7 R16.*7 |
\tsModern 4*3 R4*3 |
\tsModern 16*12 R4*3 |
\tsModern 32*5 R32*5 |
}
\score { \theMusic }
Hope this helps!
Kieren.
