I've looked at the compiled version now. It's nicely
written, but my concern is that this is no longer written
in 'reference' style. To me, parts of it seem more
suited to the LM. The idea of the NR is that people
already well-familiar with LilyPond can quickly find a
keyword or syntax they have forgotten, without having to
wade through introductory material. That process was
easier with the old layout. I'll not object to this
change, but we ought to do it only after explicit
agreement from others that this style of writing is
acceptable in the NR.
