It _sounds_ too small, but may turn out to be quite a number.
Basically, it requires a solid understanding of iterators, analyzing the
music events occuring in grace situations, designing iteration orders
useful for typesetting and MIDI replay, and making everything work with
them.  Iterators are not really the best documented corner of LilyPond.
