If there will probably even be a MIDI playback in the future, we actually need "real" marks to jump to, not only text markups. This being said, I'd favour *something containing "mark" and "repeat"*, because that's what it's all about. If we want to capture semantics properly, I believe we need to recognize that there are three different kinds of marks: 1) "jump-from" marks (D.S. al ..., D.C. al ..., To Coda) 2) "jump-to" marks (Segno, beginning of piece, coda) 3) "stop playing" marks (Fine, end of piece) Now, granted, we don't need any marks for the beginning of the piece or the end of the piece. They just happen. But if we try to capture all three semantics in a single mark, our prospective MIDI performer would need to analyze the mark to decide which kind it was. And since we can do whatever we want with the mark by changing the markup, it seems like we need three *different* marks. My initial proposal if we want to go the functional route would be to use \depart \join \fine It seems likely that all three could create a FlowScript grob.
