I would not argue that. Placing a number without a bracket should place a number without a bracket, regardless of how good or bad a bracket, if one wanted to speculate about placing it, would fit. Conflating the two issues will cause artificial compromises for either case where no compromise is called for. -- David Kastrup _______________________________________________ lilypond-devel mailing list lilypond-devel@gnu.org https://lists.gnu.org/mailman/listinfo/lilypond-devel
