1 Features you cannot find in the doco as working, should be mentioned here.
3 This is an assorted collection of stuff that will be done, might be
4 done, or is an idea that I want to think about
6 Most of the items are marked in the code as well, with full explanation.
7 grep for TODO and ugh/ugr

163 < \multi 2; { \stem 1; <b c> } { <f as b> } >
166 - merge key{item} & localkey{item}?
167 - do conventional keys (C G A, F B E, a e fis, d as des, etc ),
168 besides lists of flats/sharps, possibly via declaration
170 - key undo: \key bes; .. . \key; should print natural
171 - special key: \key bes 'b bis';

175 - redo Notehead to allow digits as heads
176 - add a \tablature {} lexer mode for easy entering
179 * should adjust stemlength for flag number.
