What we would need is a payed full-time developer. However, this is expensive. Assuming that the programmer has a family with children, an appartment, etc., and to provide a reasonably good living for him or her, this would be about 3000 Euros a month here in Austria or Germany (one third of the amount would immediately vanish as taxes and social security payments). But maybe there is a group of LilyPond philanthropists who can afford this and are willing to do so...
