How are the chances to get this ready for the MEI 5.1 release?

I think this could be reached. I'll git it a higher priority!

@gucl-mu Here is a first idea, what do you think?

Within physMedium the material of which an object is composed (physical materials, such as ink, paper, etc.) can be recorded. This can be done by using a single physMedium element containing the whole description or by using multiple physMedium elements for recording different materials separately. This container element may contain textual content and semantic markup. Because of the rich model class model.physDescPart the container can also contain highly structured code.

<physDesc xmlns="http://www.music-encoding.org/ns/mei" meiversion="5.1-dev+anyStart">
    <physMedium>Thick yellow paper.</physMedium>
    <physMedium>Extra paper <height unit="mm">35</height>x<width unit="mm">150</width> glued on the source.</physMedium>
    <physMedium>Black ink is used for the notes, red ink for the dynamics</physMedium>
</physDesc>
