I think what Graham's wanting to try out to get started is a beautiful example per major *section* of the manual rather than per minor *subsection*.
Yes, absolutely.
If each snippet is a single staff of three-five measures, we could fit four of them. I think. Don't go overboard, but we could certainly stick two short snippets in there.So with that in mind I've started thinking more about "what one snippet would best show off contemporary notation as a whole" rather than "what snippet would show off polymetric notation", etc.
I just experimented a bit; four one-staff snippets work with staffsize=16. That's still quite legible. Granted, if you have lots of stuff sticking above/below the staff, four staffs might be too much... but three should certainly be fine.
