Subject: Re: \score vs. \new Score with \midi
The situation where I have needed to explicitly define the Score context is to
remove engravers (time signature and bar number in this case.)
I would suggest adding something under 10.3.1 (Creating MIDI Files) in the 2.10
manual, maybe under the Bugs section.

Since you probably have read the documentation much more carefully than
I have, could you please provide
more specific hints on where to best
put this
information?
