New issue 937 by pnorcks: Support for right-to-left music
http://code.google.com/p/lilypond/issues/detail?id=937

We have received a request from Father Gilmary to implement right-to-left
music.  For background information, see

http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/lilypond-user/2009-02/msg00634.html

Right-to-left music would help facilitate reading right-to-left scripts in
lyrics, for example.

Attached is an image of the beginning of Father Gilmary's example, with
Syriac scripts that are set right-to-left for every syllable.

The second image is an Inkscape mockup of one possibility for right-to-left
music with right-to-left script direction.
