+abolish the hierarchy between natural and non-natural notes.
+With this style, @emph{every} note gets an accidental sign,
+including natural signs.

 This is the opposite of @code{no-reset}: Accidentals are not
 remembered at all -- and hence all accidentals are typeset
 relative to the key signature, regardless of what came before in
