My biggest questions about this use case surround the layout changes that are baked into gregorian.ly, for example:

    \layout {
    %% ...
        \context {
          \Score
    %% ...
          \override SpacingSpanner.packed-spacing = ##t
    %% ...

Either you want this or you don't.  If you don't, your current choices are to forego gregorian.ly and copy the subset that is useful into your own file, or include gregorian.ly and counteract selected things like this.

There are already comments in gregorian.ly to the effect that it should be split into multiple files, and I can't say I disagree in the light of this use case.
