But don't use that for horns - or any other tenor orchestral instrument, as it would be needlessly confusing. (And I said nothing to preclude the 8va treble or the 8ba bass, as there is no common alternative clef for them, and, just as with guitar, the 8s and 15s only serve to clarify what was the standard notation already).
