ok.. so the standard is to reduce as much as possible, and then there is a
list of pairs (duration . time signature) saying that when the bar length is
"duration", then "time signature" should be used?
Another problem is that different parts could get out of sync. If one staff
comes one 8th off, then you'll easily get undesired results such as
\time 1/8 c8 \time 7/8 c c c c c c c \time 1/8 ...
There should be some mechanism that prevents this from happening (perhaps only
the barchecks of one staff should be used to define the bar lengths, so the
others could be used as bar checks)
