The event-listener code in partcombiner.scm (?) would be a starting
point along this line.  There is also event-listener.ly.  It's not like
the tools aren't there.  The problem would be more along the line of
ensuring that indeed all pertinent information is passed through events
and that the events are sufficient for identifying the event hierarchy.
