I think one must have one central language, so that adding one conversion
to/from it automatically gives you conversion to the others.

I suppose MusicXML is the main candidate for that central language, and we
already have XML2PMX. But we don't (yet) have PMX2XML :-(

A project like this was my pet programming project about three years ago,
but it never got to the stage where I could put an alpha version on GitHub.
My central language was not MusicXML, but Lua, since Lua is available in
all TeX distributions, and a Lua table can do all that XML can plus much
more.

But I'm willing to share a block of comments, in case there is another Lua
programmer on our list:
