I was thinking of something as simple as using the number of beats
per minute (\tempo ... ) and the the number of beats per bar to work out
the elapsed time. Obviously this gets more complicated when taking
tempo changes into account and any partial bars but it wouldn't necessarily
involve changing the current separate passes for PDF and MIDI generation.
