Well, issue 1 is that we need the authors to be ok with that.  Issue 2
is that a typical Frescobaldi/LilyPond installation will then have
competing installations of the library/script.  Depending on how active
development on Frescobaldi is, we need to agree on an installation
scheme that will not get in the hair of either Frescobaldi users and
non-users.
