Thank you Mathias,
interesting and important comments!
What makes me prefer my choice is that many, many years ago I happened
to sang "Elslein" in a small group, and the "not repeating" way
resembles so much better to the sound of the that "Lied" than the other
alternative.

If you look at the final clause (5 t 5), you will see that Newsidler knew
and wrote held notes. I take that as an argument against the notion that he
wrote a note but didn't mean it to be played but to be held. Another
argument might be that if you omit the "repeated" note you can hardly
explain why you hit the following treble note with the index, and that is an
important matter in his method. So I vote for playing the "repeated" note.
