Yes, but, it's necessary too to add a *warning* on the Lilypond output. This is much more clear for the user than the documentation.

 

It may be desirable, but it’s not *necessary* to add a warning.  At this point, I don’t think we have the infrastructure to add the warning.   Your use case is not the standard LilyPond use case. I’m not much motivated to spend a lot of time making the changes necessary to add a warning.

 

If you’d like to propose a patch, I wouldn’t expect it to be rejected as long as it met LilyPond coding standards.

 

Thanks,

 

Carl
