But the information about which section I'm in is useful as a display. Users of my programs would kill me if I displayed something different to them than what they had to enter to *get* to that place, or if what displayed was different (even if equivalent) from what they entered to get there. I don't see any utility at all in omitting the section number for measures that fall within a measure number region. -- David W.
