Nice! I do the same kind of thing in my big multi-movement works (operas, 
musicals, etc.)

For those searching the list and finding this thread, here's another way of 
accomplishing conditional engraving:

%%%%  SNIPPET BEGINS
\version "2.19.80"

include_A = ##t

nullscore = \markup \null
score_A = \score { { c''4 } }

$(if include_A score_A nullscore)
%%%%  SNIPPET ENDS

Best,
Kieren.
