   6 Hi,
   7         I want to write some music that has the structure:
   8
   9         Intro
  10         \repeat 4 { Chorus [first-ending] verse }
  11         fifth-ending final
  12
  13         The obvious:
  14
  15         \repeat 4 { Chorus \alternative{{first-ending}{}} verse}
  16         \alternative{{}{fifth-ending}}
  17         final
  18
  19         doesn't work.
  20
  21         And the (logically correct but ugly)
  22
  23         \repeat 4 {Chorus}
  24         \alternative {{first-ending verse}{fifth ending}}
  25         final
  26
  27         is very ugly, because the volta bracket keeps going for so
  28         long.
