Currently, the "Commonly tweaked properties" contains five
examples. These demonstrate a number of neat tricks you can do with
tuplets... but what happens if something needs to be updated? (ie
a property name changes, somebody thinks of a better explanation,
there's a nicer way to achieve a particular tweak, etc)
Personally, I don't care were stuff is put, if only the main document
is having certain keyword to search for and an indication of where to
read more about it. If I type a keyword in Preview (Mac OS X), I can
see all occurrences.
So, for example, suppose I want to typeset less common meters. These
are called by names such as "irregular", "asymmetrical", "compound",
"complex", "aksak", "limping", etc. I could search for a few of those
names to get a hit. If there is a line in the document that this is
discussed in more detail elsewhere, it would be fine with me.
In this context, I have found examples in the main document to be
useful because sometimes I have some LilyPond code, and then I can
search for occurrences of some keywords in that code. This way, I can
get places where the topic I am looking for might be discussed.
