Excellent, as always. Thanks.
Well, not really. Should AccidentalSuggestion.glyph-name-alist be
changed by default here? Or are the ficta signs in mensural music
usually added as well as styled modernly?
I think it should be changed by default for mensural music. I have never
seen a modern style accidental in mensural music. I also believe their
meaning is different: it seems simply an alternative way of showing an
accidental, rather than illustrating an editorial suggestion.
Should there be some more obvious interface? And/or documentation?
I think if it's not the default, then it should be documented. If it is the
default, probably no need.
