And not even a strong one. If it's for the conversion and *only* the name it's
trivial to handle.

\variant seems unsuitable not only for the potential mistakes. Many cases will
not deal with variants but single events. For example you may want to simply
state that some notes are illegible, which is an editorial assessment and not a
variant. The same goes for \option.
The common aspect would be "editorial markup", but \markup is not an option,
obviously.
\editorial gap { S2 }
might be something I could become friends with.
