OK, it seems, there is interest in this engraver. I hope, I can manage
to demix the whole stuff and right docs sooon.

I will do it soon. And I want to demix the whole thing, so that the
edition-engraver, the templating-system and all the other tiny pieces
are separated and only dependant, where needed.

Most times I was able to use (once) override or set, which are
supported. Also supported are break and pageBreak. But if one wants to
edit one notehead (or Accidental) of a chord, it seems not possible
right now. I probably will introduce an interface for that kind of mod,
that says at measure-moment-context look for a note-event then use my
callback (or the like).
