with lilypond anything should be possible with a little bit of coding ;)

It is not easy ...
You have the paper-variables for system-count (and for page-count).
When you combine that with forced pagebreaks, you might get close to
that request. *But IIUC* the page-variable will not change while
iterating the music. When the layout process is started, all iteration
is already done.
--snip-- % silly example just to show the rules
\version "2.18.0"
\include "editorial-tools/edition-engraver/definitions.ily"
\paper {
systems-per-page = #5
}
\layout {
\context {
\Score
\consists \editionEngraver forced.pages
}
}
\addEdition pages
\editionMod pages 10 0/1 forced.pages.Score.A \pageBreak
\editionMod pages 25 0/1 forced.pages.Score.A \pageBreak
\new Staff \with {
\consists \editionEngraver forced.pages
} { \repeat unfold 50 \relative c'' { bes b c cis } }
--snip--
Lets think a bit more about it ...
Best, Jan-Peter
