That’s exactly what I thought, though I clearly didn’t describe my impression 
very well. I understand fully that the grobs would have to be programmatically 
changed to deal with that property (which is why I suggested that MMRs would 
likely have to be reprogrammed to do exactly what they already do, just via the 
new property).

So, I’ll reframe my question:
Does it make sense to give measure-centering properties a label?

Thanks,
Kieren.
