That's an elegant trick :-)
Nevertheless it does not work with PMX, because PMX has already
computed up- and down-stems, beam-directions, slur-directions, ...
We have discussed the problem earlier. Imho the solution was that
it would be best if PMX would learn some more clefs or maybe at least
some clef-modifiers (e.g. Ct-8, CT, or Ct+8 ...).
In addition it would be nice to have Midi octavation with PMX to enable
in-line TeX usage of \octline. A nice implementation would require
such command at note level not at input block level.
