Re: midi elapsed time markers

[Mats Bengtsson]

Unfortunately, it may be quite difficult to implement without changing 
major parts of LilyPond, since currently the  MIDI generation and the 
printed output are done completely separately, one after the other, 
whereas they would have to be done jointly to be able to implement your 
feature request (as far as I can see).
