Pffff.  I just took a look at lily/score-performer.c.

It would appear that one reasonably "consistent" way would be to allow  
negative values of skipTypesetting here in order to have time start  
earlier.  There are a number of downsides to this approach.
a) It does not make sense to warn about pre-zero grace notes for  
skipTypesetting = 0 when we don't warn about missed material for  
skipTypesetting > 0.
b) that's no user interface but rather a hack.

However, if the hack turns out to be reasonably easy to turn into something  
workable, we can probably create a separate variable for time-shifting the  
Midi and let its information travel the same path as skipTypesetting.
