That would be a pity.
I just wanted to mention that I solved the problem anyway, as I think it really is worth doing. I was pleased with the results, and have updated pull request https://github.com/musescore/MuseScore/pull/262 ready for merging or for people to try out. Marc - I would be particularly interested if you were able to try it out. Are you able to build from github or do you need a binary? (I know you had problems with your development envirnoment a while ago).
