It would take me about 10 seconds;  imagemagick has this functionality
built in (the same one that is used to generate the current images of
the regtest).

The reason I did not do it originally is that it moves the comparison
farther away from lilypond itself and pixel-per-pixel changes are not
calibrated for the size of the symbols: a large symbol moving place
will generate a much higher difference score than a small score.  It
might have been a quicker way to get started with running comparison
tests.
