Well, I have a problem getting behind the logic of output processing: Midi  
and Layout processing appear to be utterly different.  If the global  
context is not referenced beyond a certain point, part of the reason may be  
so that its memory can be (or has already been) reclaimed.  Since a whole  
context hierarchy and property system can be hung off it, that can  
constitute some memory that would be nice to be available for cooking up  
the PDF or some Midi details.

But that's pure speculation on my part.  I don't really have an idea  
whether there is some idea behind the separation.  Is Music_output::process  
still early enough to avoid the backwards in time warning?  Maybe we should  
pass the start time to process?  Does that get the information where we  
need it?
