The autobeamer takes a Scheme list in beamExceptions that looks like
\void \displayScheme \beamExceptions \repeat unfold 2 { 8[ 8 8 8] }
(list (list (quote end) (list 1/8 4 4)))
I think it would be conceivable to fudge around with multiple brackets
for subdivisions, like
\beamExceptions \repeat unfold 4 { 16[[ 16] 16[ 16]] }
which currently does not really do anything useful. Of course, this
needs to have \beamExceptions recognize this, create some useful
list-based rendition of it, and have the autobeamer interpret that
list-based rendition.
The first versions would likely not mess at all with \beamExceptions but
rather create the lists for the overrides manually. But \beamExceptions
could become a nice interface for creating such lists eventually.
