We already have the predefined macro \noBeam. Do we really need yet another
more or less obscure special case of the syntax?

I'm not sure whether this has been discussed before: What do you think
of using `c[]' as a shorthand for `\autoBeamOff c \autoBeamOn'?

Currently, `c[]' produces

           _____
             |
             |
             O

(a note with a beamlet to the left and right), which is neither
documented nor makes much sense IMHO.

My special example is this where such a shorthand would be quite
convenient:

  c4 c c \times 2/3 { r8 c16 } c8

(see attached image).
