the source is available.  Those GUI/IDE developers can talk to us.

Of course the easiest way to go about this would be to enable a
"bad line breaks" mode, where it compiles the score once, then
when you change something, it only recompiles that system (with
the bar numbers for the beginning and ending of each system being
cached).  That alone would be a huge time-saving.

as I've said, the source is available.  Interested developers are
welcome to talk to us.
