This is a great idea.  What'd I'd recommend is doing a "natural" version and a 
version with lots of tweaks.  If you define all the tweaks in a separate file, 
then all you need to do is sub that file with one that has empty definitions.  
This will help developers know how far LilyPond is from automating certain 
decisions.
