Denemo's MusicXML import is very crude, it doesn't even try for chord
names, lyrics and probably quite a lot of other things, just
concentrates on reducing the labor of putting in all those dratted notes
and durations again. The upside of this is that it will often get you
*something* while musicxml2ly generally used to give up if it
encountered something bad in the input.

Happy to test out musicXML import via Denemo any time, in the hopes of
finding places to improve it.
