That would be great!

Definitely.
I'll see how and when I can prepare something to give it to you.

Well, nothing speaks against creating an openLilyLib package *without* 
publishing it, just for personal organization. In that case it would be 
valid to have an uncategorized package with "all my reusable stuff", and 
have *some* organization thorugh modules like "common-tweaks", 
"score-organization", "fancy-score-elements" etc.).
