I certainly understand that as being the most common need. However I am not a
composer. I am in
the position of either adapting an existing book for younger players who may
not be able to play
all the instruments in a book or fixing my own book so the page turns are
better maybe because of
cuts.
.
Sometimes I am just creating parts and maybe scores from existing hard to read
parts.
I usually want to just get music that already exists into the computer. Even
though my transposition
skills are fine it's safer to enter the music directly as written.

I often use \quoteDuring for parts of what I do avoid entering a doubled
passage more than once..
So I am saying that I would like any new features for instrument switching to
suit my need to
not always enter the notes in concert pitch. I don't really think that be a
problem.
