Tu sum up your suggestion, which I like quite much, I propose the
following section (inside chapter 7 "Decorating musical notation", and
replacing "Special use"):
7.6 Note heads and stems
7.6.1 Stems
7.6.2 Special noteheads
7.6.3 Improvisation
7.6.4 Selecting notation font size
7.6.5 Hidden notes
7.6.6 Parentheses
My two cents: maybe "Parentheses" should be included in a (sub)section
in chapter 7, called "Editorial notation", which would also deal with
bracketed dynamics for example. Then, I don't know where to move
"Coloring objects", what a pain! What about including it as an example
subsection in "9.3 The \override command", with proper index entries,
and adding a "See also" link from the main page of chapter 7?
Cheers,
John
