David, Thanks for the feedback! It's sad to hear that boxed notation is a bit challenging in LilyPond (i.e. not possible without "breaking" parts of it) - do you think there will ever be a native, more acceptable way to do boxed notation in the future? I'm not much a programmer so I apologize if that is a silly question, but it'd be awesome if it could be implemented. I'm not sure if you mean it's not possible yet, or not possible from a programming standpoint.
