Are there any parts of your new file that can be added without
tweaking the score and layout? If so, why not prepare a patch for
those "un-controversial" parts, and get those accepted first?
Are your layout tweaks any less severe than stuff we do for
gregorian? If so, that could be a good reason to accept them. If
not, you could just make a few macros which do the tweaks, so that
users only have to do
\include "bagpipe.ly"
\paper {
\bagpipeSpacing
}
