Phil, this is a good point. We should add explicitly to ABC 2.0 that all unrecognized clefs should be ignored (think also about the percussion clef) and that notation like (a) should be dealt with properly. This way, it will be possible to specify a Gregorian Chant module in ABC 3.0 without breaking other software.
