I think I'd like ClefModifier. Something like
`clefOctavation' (integer)
Add this much extra octavation. Values of 7 and -7 are
common.
does not make sense. Transposition is not really accurate since the
number is in steps rather than diatonic. It is a bit disconcerting that
values of 7, -7, 14 and -14 lead to numbers 8, 8, 15 and 15.
I don't find "shift" all too bad: one can talk about pitch shifting
after all, and for spatial displacements we tend to use "offset".
