If you think this approach has a chance to be included into LilyPond, I can  
turn it into a patch. The following would need to be done as far as I can  
see:

* put swing.scm in scm/ (possibly turn it into a module)
* create a wrapper in ly/ to use \include on
* (most work) turn swingtest.ly into a set of regression tests and a  
notation manual section.

I might find time to do that this weekend.

Notice that the solution still feels conceptually hackish to me, since  
map-events-with-timing clumsily duplicates iteration stage functionality.  
On the other hand, I guess any "proper" solution would be considerably more  
complicated and invasive, and this one is certainly not more clutchy than  
articulate.ly.
